"11th Hour" and friend
“11th Hour” co-directors Leila Conners-Petersen and Nadia Conners along with environmental expert Kenny Ausubel of Bioneers, at the Hotel du Cap Saturday afternoon ahead of the premiere of their environmental doc. The film goes beyond the scope of global warming, sending a message that non-action will mean suicide for humanity as a species, while at the same time giving hope in new technologies that can reverse damage done. “We’re not in need of saving the planet,” said Leila giving context to the message in her film. “We need to save ourselves.” (Photo and text by Brian Brooks/indieWIRE.
