**4Caves 4Seasons**
**Director Nikolas Margaritis** (29:17 Min) Greece
Greece is known for its pristine Waters and history.
The dive into four unique caves of the Peloponnese and film karst springs, rooms with cave themes of several meters, narrow siphons with sedimentary rocks, and well-hidden rooms untouched over the millennia. Arcadian mountains to the spring of the ancient Inachos River through a route that reveals to us the geological history of our waters

**The Monarch Altra**
**Director Rodney Fuentes** (51:00 Min) Canada
Deeply concerned about the steep decline of insect pollinators due to devastating environmental impacts, a group of runners trace the migration path of the monarch butterflies across three countries as they organized a 4,300 kilometer relay run, aiming to raise awareness for pollinator conservation.

**The Cyprus Bycatch Project**
**Director Constantinos Christou** (13.29 Min) Cyprus
Bycatch, the accidental capture of non-target species in fishing gear, is a major issue in Cyprus. This can have serious consequences for both the marine ecosystem and the fishing industry, leading to declines and potentially even extinction. In addition to the environmental consequences, bycatch can also have economic impacts on the fishing industry.

**Gardening for the Planet**
**Director Joanne L. Hershfield** (58:00 Min) United States
Climate change is a global crisis, and "Gardening For the Planet," a one-hour documentary directed by Joanne Hershfield, offers a compelling call to action. This film showcases the potential of native plant gardening to significantly combat climate change and urges viewers to make a difference.

**Weathering Tides: Saving the Black Rail**
**Director Andy Johnson (13:36 Min) United States**
The Eastern Black Rail is a federally Endangered and extremely secretive marsh bird, found primarily along the mid-Atlantic and Southeast coast of the United States. Habitat loss from development and sea-level rise inundation has reduced populations by 90% since the 1990s. Without intervention, the remaining east coast population is projected to be extirpated before 2070.

**Built to last: Buyer Beware**
**Director George Siegal** (1:14:14 Min) United States
Built to Last: Buyer Beware. Narrated by award winning actor Dylan Baker, the film exposes the negligence and lack of accountability within the building industry, presenting a stark contrast between homes that fail under stress and those that stand the test of time. Through interviews with experts, builders, and affected homeowners, Built to Last: Buyer Beware not only highlights the flaws in the current system but also provides valuable insights and solutions for future homebuyers and policymakers.

**From Land To River**
**Director Lauren Barnett, Michel Thoma** (12:34 Min) United States
In this film, we’ve created a snapshot of the work of the Subalusky Lab at the University of Florida, showcasing the research team’s insights on animals and their greater impacts on
various ecosystems. Ultimately, the film calls on viewers to consider the broader implications of environmental research and conservation, and how they can support or contribute to the cause even if it just means adopting a new perspective. We aim to inspire, inform, and ignite a commitment to environmental stewardship among our viewers.

**Chasing The Tide**
**Director Jay Kleberg, Chrissy Kleberg** (27:00 Min / First Episode ) United States
Chasing the Tide joins adventurers Chrissy and Jay Kleberg on an unprecedented expedition along Texas’ 370 miles of barrier islands. This 21-day hike explores one of the most biologically diverse coastlines in North America and efforts to balance economic growth and healthy wildlife populations. The entire series is viewable on PBS.
