Exciting documentary footage showcasing the breathtaking beauty of Antarctica, its inhabitants, and the impact of climate change will be featured at the upcoming Antarctic Film Festival.

The New Zealand Antarctic Society is presenting a selection of short films curated by renowned filmmaker Anthony Powell. The films will be shown in Dunedin on Sunday, August 17th, starting at 6:30 pm at Te Whare o Rukutia, 20 Princes St. The event will include introductions and a Q&A session.

Hubertien Wichers, President of the New Zealand Antarctic Society, expressed enthusiasm for the captivating program that brings together stunning imagery of the icy continent. These images were captured by participants in the Winter International Film Festival of Antarctica 48-Hour Challenge, showcasing creativity and resilience of those who spend the winter on the ice.

Before the screening, Emeritus Professor Pat Langhorne from the University of Otago will share her journey from Scotland to New Zealand and her expertise in sea ice, a crucial element in understanding the planet’s workings. Prof Langhorne is featured in the documentary Mighty Indeed by Vanessa Wells.

Wichers emphasized the festival’s goal of bringing Antarctica to the people of New Zealand through a blend of science, art, humor, and personal stories. She highlighted the festival’s success in engaging audiences and fostering a connection to Antarctica within the local community.

Moreover, the festival aims to raise awareness about Antarctica’s role in our climate system. Antarctica offers insights into our planet’s history, ongoing changes, and implications for future generations,” Wichers stated.

Established in 1933, the New Zealand Antarctic Society fosters a community of individuals passionate about Antarctica through educational initiatives, outreach programs, events, and their publication Antarctic. For more details, visit antarcticsociety.org.nz
