Animator William Jarcho (Not One of Us) and Julio Benito Cabrera (Youth Challenge in attendance!

Its up to us all to save our home, Planet Earth. Meet a reptile who has decided to go vegetarian, clay creatures who learn the hard way not to build walls, and some space explorers from the future, forced to live on Mars. Youll also see a film that might change your mind about blowing up balloons for your next birthday party, and see a short history of the world, with an ending youll want to make sure doesnt happen! There is also a moving story about a boy from Nicaragua, who loves all plants, except sugarcane, because working in the sugarcane fields has made his father sick. The film concludes with a film from Puerto Rico, reminding us all that kindness is needed to truly save our world.
