Director: Charlotte Sawyer
UK, 2024, 86', English
Do humans have a right to nature? Across the Welsh border, a wild swimming community in Bristol is fighting against the raw sewage pollution devastating the River Avon. Featuring upbeat music, activism, and stories of those who refuse to let their river die, Rave on For The Avon is an invitation to unite, celebrate, and share our common fight for clean, thriving waterways.
Join us for our special screenings followed by a live Q&A with director Charlotte Sawyer as we connect across borders and inspire action together.
