David Suzuki’s The Nature of Things:

REBELLION

A unique documentary featuring a one-on-one conversation between
David Suzuki and Sir David Attenborough that takes the pulse of our
planet and asks whether humans can change their ways in time.

THURSDAY ~ March 21, 2024 ~ 7:00 PM

REBELLION is a crash course in every social issue that has frustrated and inspired a new generation of
activists. There’s a sense that this was a straightforward assignment going in – 2019 was the year
of Greta after all. And much of the film is wrapped around climate change, with focus on Thunberg,
nature filmmaker Sir David Attenborough (who has changed his message from awe over the beauty of
nature to alarm at its state of peril), and Gail Bradbrook of the Extinction Rebellion movement that
has made headlines with dramatic protests around the globe. But 2020 clearly threw a spanner in the
works. All of a sudden, a clear theme was muddled by a pandemic and concurrent global racial unrest
following the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police. Rebellion works to connect the
environment and racial injustice into a single issue.
