High Tide Don't Hide

Image du film High Tide Don't Hide - FIFDH 2022

Déterminés à susciter une action concrète, des adolescents néo-zélandais se joignent à la grève mondiale des écoles pour le climat. Mais la planification d’un mouvement et la création d’un élan restent simples, tandis qu’ils se heurtent à l’indifférence politique, à leurs propres privilèges et à la lutte des ONG pour se faire entendre… à mesure que les marées continuent de monter. Dans la petite ville de Thames, les meilleures amies adolescentes Helena et Lillian se battent contre leur maire alors que la mer commence à s’enfoncer dans leurs rues. Dans la capitale, Sophie se mobilise tout en se présentant au conseil municipal, alors que l’attention des médias diminue. Dans la grande ville d’Auckland, Luke milite pour une action directe non violente, prêt à se faire arrêter si cela peut faire les gros titres. Lorsque Aigagaleifili, le poète primé de South Auckland, forme un groupe de grève dissident, tout doit changer. Les effets dévastateurs du changement climatique sur les nations du Pacifique doivent être reconnus.

Impact Statement
High Tide Don’t Hide tracks a shift among Aotearoa, New Zealand’s youth climate justice movement, as Pasifika and indigenous activists work to take their rightful place at the front of it. By showing our characters’ experiences in taking action on issues including climate anxiety and racism, our vision is that others are inspired to take action too. Our primary impact goals are to amplify youth voices in the area of climate activism and to provoke urgent, uncompromising and effective climate action, particularly by centring Pasifika voices in Aotearoa, across the Pacific and the world. This film encourages activist groups to examine privilege and representation in their own groups’ and movements’ dynamics and to take steps to explore the true meaning of allyship.

With High Tide Don't Hide we aim to amplify youth voices in the area of climate activism to provoke urgent, effective and uncompromising climate action. We encourage activist groups to examine privilege and representation in their own group or movement's dynamics.
Impact Goals
  1. Amplify youth voices to provoke urgent, uncompromising and effective climate action.
  2. Drive commitment to collective action to make drastic changes, e.g. greenhouse gas emission legislation.
  3. Support acknowledgement that climate change is a social justice issue, particularly for the Pacific nations.
  4. Encourage examination of privilege, representation and allyship in viewers’ own group/ movement dynamics.
  5. Spotlight the impact of the climate crisis and insufficient climate action on youth mental health.
Impact Strategy
  • Screen at key policy-directing/influencing conferences: COP27; United Nations, WEF, European Parliament.
  • Partner with Pacific activist groups to support a Pacific-identified campaign goal.
  • Compile to share existent resources on privilege and allyship, and highlight places of expertise.
  • Partner with NGOs to have the film shared internally, and internationally.
  • Forge connections with international support agencies, e.g. environmental groups, NGOs, Green parties, and climate justice organisations.
  • Broadcast in more territories; on television, or a significant streamer, e.g. Netflix.
  • Partner with the New Zealand Ministry of Education to have the film seen in all New Zealand high schools.
  • Find the support of an international Impact Producer/s to support international viewership and impact.
  • Source funds to support international impact and outreach, e.g. the Climate Resilience Justice Fund.
