CCCL Film Festival at BKKCAW 2026

About this event

Changing Climate, Changing Lives (CCCL) Film Festival, under Tonkla Rak Lok Foundation, together with HERA, Hai-Jai, mlkywy.hub, Snappy Duck, and noble PLAY, presents “CCCL Film Festival at BKKCAW 2026,” a two-day program exploring the relationships between living beings, biodiversity, and the environments we share. taking place on 3–4 October 2026 at noble PLAY (Ploenchit BTS Station), the program consists of a curated selection of short films, photography and art exhibitions, and a conversation for filmmakers and environmental and social storytellers as part of Bangkok Climate Action Week 2026. The film program brings together a selection of outstanding Thai and international short films previously screened at CCCL Film Festival. From threatened wetlands to communities working together to protect their local ecosystems, the films invite audiences to consider the connections between living beings, biodiversity, and the changing climate, and how changes within one part of an ecosystem can affect everything around it. The program will also feature a screening of YANUNI on 4 October at 3:00 PM, directed by Richard Ladkani and co-produced by Leonardo DiCaprio. The documentary follows an Indigenous woman leader as she fights to protect her ancestral lands in the Amazon rainforest. Variety described the film as an environmental documentary that is “thrilling and romantic.” Alongside the film program, HERA will present a collection of 12 photographs documenting the impacts of rising urban temperatures on women, including how extreme heat affects their work and health. Hai-Jai and mlkywy.hub will also bring back some of the works from their BREATHE exhibition presented in late 2025, to this pop-up exhibition titled “BREATHE Again.” Bringing the works into a new context, the exhibition continues to explore stories, memories, and our relationship with the environment. On 4 October at 2:00 PM, Snappy Duck will host a conversation exploring the role and importance of environmental storytelling. The session will discuss the topic and exchange perspectives on how environmental stories can connect with audiences and explore ways to move these stories beyond awareness towards meaningful and sustainable change. Through film, exhibition, and conversation, CCCL Film Festival at BKKCAW 2026 creates a space to look at climate and environmental issues not only through data and information, but through the stories, experiences, and relationships that connect all living things.
