Wild and Scenic Environmental Film Festival hosted by the Nevada Wilderness Project on Nov. 4 at 7pm.

These independent films are inspiring, positive stories about people around the world making a difference for conservation, green energy and their local communities. Movies include “Division Street,” which follows filmmaker Eric Bendick as he tours North America, dodging Yellowstone’s grizzlies and Miami’s taxicabs, in search of new sustainable road projects and wildlife corridors for the 21st Century. “Fridays at the Farm” features lush time-lapse and macro photography to explore life–in all its forms–on an organic farm. Cannes Film Festival’s online competition winner “Historia de un Letrero” explores an unusual and life-altering encounter between two strangers.

There are seven films in all. Nationally sponsored by Patagonia, Tom’s of Maine, Clif Bar, the evening will also include music, raffles, product giveaways and membership drives.
