Santa Cruz Del Islote/Yangtze Drift/Sticky

SANTA CRUZ DEL ISLOTE (Luke Lorentzen, 2014)

Off Colombia’s Caribbean coast 50 miles from Cartagena in the San Bernardo Archipelago lies the tiny Santa Cruz del Islote, unofficially the most densely populated island in the world. This beautiful depiction of life on the island shows a peaceful community, isolated but increasingly dependent on the outside world for resources and jobs as the environment changes and sea level rises. (20 minutes)

YANGTZE DRIFT (John Rash, 2014)

The Yangtze River acts as a compass urging us along a graceful and looping path. This meditative river tour confounds our preconceptions while at the same time disputing the authenticity of the journey on which we have embarked. (27 minutes)

STICKY (Jilli Rose, 2014)

A short animated documentary telling the astonishing story of the stick insects from Lord Howe Island. A love song to evolution, uniqueness, life and the little creatures underfoot. (Australia, 19 minutes)
