THE PURPOSE OF LIFE, 2min., China
Directed by 帆 杨
The purpose of life is different for everyone, some people are unable to achieve their “own” vision in their lives, and some people are swept by the tide surging in all directions, and there is no flow of self. Money, wealth, status, these glamorous appearances are what we pursue, freedom and unrestricted are also what we pursue, and the right to go up is what everyone has, but when we seem to get all this and seem to have completed our life goals, will there be a vague feeling – these purposes are arranged by others and society? Not actually ours? When we realize all this and want to break it, does our sense of rebellion really come from ourselves, and do we enter a new cage?

festreviews film festival, film festival reviews , , , , , ,

A festival designed to showcase the best of new environmentally themed films (shorts, features) and screenplays (shorts, features, TV pilots) from around the world. We accept any genre (animation, comedy, experimental, horror etc.) as long as it has an underlying environmental thematic. We seek to advance public understanding of the environment through the power of film and storytelling; which is why this festival has been created.

Awards & Prizes

We will perform a winning Environmental screenplay(s) at our festival every single month using professional actors. Then we send the writer a video of the performance reading.

We will showcase a festival every month using our flagship FEEDBACK Film Festival format. All festival dates are private screenings with the same Audience FEEDBACK videos made for the short & feature films, and recorded script readings performed by professional actors for the screenplays. This is our way of showing community over distance so everyone around the world can experience our Audience Feedback videos.

Recent Testimonial:

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for the remarkable experience I had at the Environmental Film & Screenplay Festival.

The entire event was impeccably organized, and the selection of films and screenplays presented was not only enlightening but also inspiring. It was evident that each piece was chosen for its powerful message and its potential to provoke thought and stimulate discussion regarding our environment and sustainability.

What truly stood out to me was the audience engagement. The feedback and reactions during the screenings were profound, reflecting a diverse audience deeply invested in environmental issues. This interactive aspect of the festival enriched the experience, providing invaluable insights and fostering a community spirit that was truly special.
