We at the films for future association are a diverse group of filmmakers, film enthusiasts and activists. Since 2013, we have been organizing film festivals and screening events on the topic of the environment and the climate crisis in Zurich and other cities.

It all started as a supporting role in the Nature Film Festival in the Rote Fabrik. We have remained true to our initial concept of film and discussion. The motto is "See - Understand - Do", because only if we act actively can we really make a difference.

What unites us is the love of films and the hope for a better tomorrow. At the forefront of the dedicated helpers and the passionately involved club members is managing director Edwin Moser.

Edwin, who co-founded films for future, was already part of the predecessor association Nebenrolle Natur and can look back on 10 years of experience in organizing environmental film festivals. Fred sees himself as a seasoned environmental expert - and this is certainly no exaggeration. He has been involved in a wide range of activities and has published a number of publications, such as "An Economy of Short Distances".

We at films for future value different perspectives and believe that many strands need to be pulled at the same time in order to achieve something. Would you like to get involved and become part of films for future? Then click here and get in touch with us.

Our Mission

films for future operates in the belief that a sustainable world fit for our grandchildren is possible. We want to awaken the desire to immerse ourselves in this world and meet people who are already living the future of tomorrow. We want to encourage people to become active and get involved.

We rely on films because they have an incredible power not only to inform, but also to touch and move. Films provide support, enlighten, allow us to empathize with others and sometimes even accompany us for a lifetime. We want to use and expand on this potential, which is why we place great value on in-depth follow-up with open dialogue.

The visitors to our events are not passive consumers, but active participants. Our program is not just to watch and understand, but to think and act for yourself. To achieve this, we show a carefully curated selection of the best and most current feature films and documentaries for a livable future and complement these with top-class panel guests.
