Take One Action!

Wednesday 17 September - Sunday 21 September
Logo for Take One Action

Take One Action believes in the power of film and storytelling to create collective change. This year’s festival is taking place in Edinburgh 17-21 Sep and is themed around ‘real utopias’, highlighting existing projects and movements that are seeds of utopian futures, and exploring how to build upon them locally. There are 11 films over 7 events, and each event will also have a “beyond the screen” element, with local experts and filmmakers invited to discuss the issues presented in the films.

Some of the issues explored are labour unions, renters rights, decolonisation, the moral complications of tech & AI, trans rights, climate change, and migration, with films from Scotland, Kenya, the US, Mexico and more. You can find a full list of events on the Take One Action website.

All of the events are pay-what-you-can (£0-20) and you can find further information about the access provisions (including descriptive subtitles for all films) here.
