MORE FLAMES
The power to rewrite the ending is yours. Storytellers of the world, let’s #FlipTheScript
The campaign film, More Flames, is a short comedy-satire on the struggles of talking about the end of the world.
As two creatives on a film set debate its plot and direction, the power of onscreen storytelling comes to light.

About the movement
If you believed every doomsday story shown in our culture, you’d go away thinking there’s nothing we can do about the climate crisis.
There’s plenty we can do though. Regeneration is already happening, and we still have a small window to turn things around. The screen industry has the power to shout about it in the stories we dream up and the characters we create.
We have the ability to rewrite the narrative, to #FlipTheScript. If we come together to tell the stories of change we can inspire audiences to do something about the climate crisis, rather than be paralysed by fear.
We are part of a rapidly growing movement of storytellers who want to rewrite the climate ending for society. Join us!
