The Race to Save The World is a climate documentary with a uniquely optimistic approach. It follows passionate activists whose single-minded focus is the creation of a sustainable world for future generations. These climate warriors, ages 15 to 72, are in the trenches fighting for a livable future, regardless of the personal cost. Emmy award-winning filmmaker Joe Gantz brings an urgent and intimate portrait of the protests, arrests, courtroom drama, and family turmoil these activists endure as they push for change. The Race to Save The World is an energizing call-to-action that inspires viewers to quit waiting on the sidelines and start making their voices heard.

Extinction Rebellion Kentucky acts with peace and ferocious love in our hearts for these lands, for life. We hope you will watch with us at 5:15 p.m on July 8th for a virtual 'Watch Party' (but you are welcome to watch the film any time after purchase), then join us for the live panel event immediately following at 7 p.m. After purchasing a $10 ticket, you'll have 20 days to start watching the film and once you begin, you'll have another 20 days to finish watching.
