How To Change The World

In 1971 a small group of Vancouver hippies, journalists, scientists, and activists, united in their opposition to a US atomic test on an Alaskan island, sailed an aging fishing boat straight for the test site. Armed only with cameras and staunch faith in the power of images, the rainbow warriors of Greenpeace were born. Using never-before-seen footage, photographs, interviews, and a first-person narration from the diaries of the group’s leader, Bob Hunter, this insightful, moving film brings Greenpeace’s earliest years—and its intense, sometimes eccentric, and often dangerous world—to life.

This film is part of the Focus on Nature 2016 series.
