*Sunday, March 18th will be the next monthly community documentary
screening in the Old Cobargo Butter Factory at 3.30pm*

*Arise*
*A Film by Lori Joyce and Candice Orlando*

*Award-winning film documents women working for social and environmental
change.*

Arise, takes a less dogmatic, more compassionate route than many of its
environmental activist counterparts, despite their shared message of the
necessity for urgent change. By celebrating the women of this movement,
their cultures, and the already thriving and significant work being
accomplished toward goals of Earth democracy, biodiversity, and gender
equality, Arise is an important film for its promotion of global unity and
progress through the support of women and girls, and specifically, Mother
Nature.

The film introduces several women from around the globe who work doing
everything from establishing restorative seed banks to transforming dumps
to city parks to building strong communities. The film roams the planet
from Kenya, Ecuador, India, the Bronx and Denver, With stories of Judy
Nyguthi Kimamo, Majora Carter, Winona LaDuke, Monica Chuji, Starhawk, Theo
Colborn, Aida Shibli, Vandana Shiva.



Both Orlando and Joyce expressed a sense of gratitude for the opportunity
to create Arise. "We wanted to make a film that spoke to our own love for
the Earth and I believe we accomplished this and much more. The women in
the film made choices, even through many hardships, to respect and fight
for human and environmental rights. We each have our own roles we can play
when we make the choice to do things differently."
