Side Event: Film Screening "Shifting Powers"
Cornelia Ernst, the Left

The event organised by MEP Cornelia Ernst will take place at the European Parliament, Room: TREVES 9V40. The screening is part of this year's Anti-Racism Week and will be followed by a discussion with a representative of the alliance Don't Gas Africa.

About the film

'Shifting Power' is an evocative documentary that delves into the lives of five unique individuals from various regions across Africa. This film intimately portrays their personal stories, interwoven with the relentless challenges and remarkable triumphs they face in combating the climate crisis—a crisis not of their making.



Each character in 'Shifting Power' leads us with courage and an unyielding spirit, revealing the profound impact of their efforts in working with and educating their communities. From navigating daily hardships to spearheading grassroots movements, these individuals are not merely survivors but beacons of hope and agents of change
