What if confronting the climate crisis is the best chance we\u2019ll ever get to build a better world?<\/p>\n

Filmed over 211 shoot days in nine countries and five continents over four years, This Changes Everything is an epic attempt to re-imagine the vast challenge of climate change.<\/p>\n

Directed by Avi Lewis, and inspired by Naomi Klein\u2019s international non-fiction bestseller This Changes Everything, the film presents seven powerful portraits of communities on the front lines, from Montana\u2019s Powder River Basin to the Alberta Tar Sands, from the coast of South India to Beijing and beyond.<\/p>\n

Interwoven with these stories of struggle is Klein\u2019s narration, connecting the carbon in the air with the economic system that put it there. Throughout the film, Klein builds to her most controversial and exciting idea: that we can seize the existential crisis of climate change to transform our failed economic system into something radically better.<\/p>\n
