I loved the Movie 2040 by Damon Gameau. It’s really hopeful and shows us it’s possible to have a better future, the most important message today. I especially also like the focus to be on kids, because those are the people that will be living in and shaping the future. So watch this movie, show it to your kids and anyone who could benefit from a little more hope and Ideas!!

Do you have any recs on good solarpunk movies/documentaries?

[-] alxd@writing.exchange 3 points 5 months ago

@realbadat I usually go with anarchist technology documentaries.

In my big Solarpunk essay ( https://alxd.org/solarpunk-lenses-and-foundations.html ) I mention https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPxCUzGGDKc , which was THE thing to inspire me to look for Solarpunk.

I love the series on the Southeast Asian Makers, https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkMf14VQEvTblDrJNG4kD6BIVW16DKJh-

They're less "comprehensive", but they're very real and very awesome :)

If I remember anything more, I'll let you know!

I'd recommend checking out our local documentary community, !documentaries@slrpnk.net, which is chock full of docs! :D

Though admittedly, most of the ones there are not directly related to solarpunk. Since the movement is really only just catching on in the mainstream, there's not much documentary/movie content about it.

The only fictional movie I can think of that's solarpunky would be Strange World from (ironically) Disney.
