Cinema is a powerful medium for raising awareness to universally critical issues like climate change, deforestation, pollution, and biodiversity loss. Films can inspire people to make a change by presenting the human side of these environmental issues. Gouna Film Festival’s Green Star Award celebrates films shedding a spotlight on environmental issues, ecology, and wildlife, stories that encourage sustainability and the protection of our planet. In this episode, the jury of Gouna Film Festival’s Green Star award, consisting of actress Tara Emad, actor Ahmed Magdy, and Dutch producer Annemiek Van der Hell, share with us how they look out for films in this category, and how being part of this award helps them advocate for the environmental causes that matter.
