Festival Partnerships & Co-Presenters

In celebration of our 10th year anniversary, Water Docs is convening film festivals across Canada to stand together for a liveable climate through a week-long festival called ReSurge: Canadian Film Festivals for a Liveable Climate.  With Water Docs as a programming and branding umbrella, participating festivals are invited to:

1.       co-present one screening within the scheduled ReSurge Film Festival; or
2.       co-present their own ReSurge screening event during the same period of time

A high-impact, internationally marketed festival week will generate far more impact than each festival could generate separately. It will also give a boost to the visibility of the participating festivals. This seven-day, mostly online festival takes place November 1 to 7 with a series of superb documentary films with water and climate themes, meaningful discussions and learning opportunities, and direct connections to action.  

We all have a stake in this, and a part to play - including film festivals. Together we can influence change.
