In this episode, we spotlight how film can drive conversations about climate change. Gareth Boyes speaks with Sophie Bri Keeble, one of the directors and writer of Into the Shadows, a film set in a future where the ozone layer is destroyed and the climate crisis has reached apocalyptic levels. Sophie shares her journey of collaboration around the world, the challenges of addressing environmental themes through storytelling and her hopes for how audiences - especially younger viewers - will engage with the film.

Also in this episode Mike Waddington finds out more about the artwork on display in Rams Walk created by Buriton Primary School students with an important message for us on climate change.
