About the film
Millions of children around the world are frustrated by the dire lack of action to protect the planet and their future. Until now, their only avenue to express these concerns has been protesting on the streets.
Director Damon Gameau (2040, That Sugar Film) takes eight children on an epic adventure across Europe in a school bus powered by biofuel. Their mission is to better understand the planet’s predicament, explore solutions and, most importantly, take the conversation from the streets, into the boardrooms of some of the world’s largest polluters and most influential companies.
Their bold, hopeful journey leads to the creation of a Future Council: young changemakers working with big business to shape a better world.
75% of the Producer’s profit share in the film will be donated to Future Council Ltd, a new not-for-profit organisation we’ve set up to support the children in their mission to collaborate with businesses, institutions and schools to create a better future. By supporting the film’s release, you are directly supporting this child-led global movement for change.

Future Council is a child-led movement that inspires and empowers young people to lead and take positive action for our future. It connects with businesses so members can help shape sustainable ideas and co-design regenerative products that benefit the planet.

Any young person aged 9 to 16, anywhere in the world, can join. It’s a chance to connect with like-minded peers, learn from world-class experts, and help make real change.
