Crunch Time: Saving Tura's Biodiversity Premiere and Q&A

All proceeds go towards protecting biodiverity.

Crunch Time: Saving Tura’s Biodiversity is a film which aims to bring our community together to help save crucial forests, stop climate change and get control of natural disasters. It’s also about saving Tura Beach, Mirador and Back Lagoon from a dangerous development project approved 33 years ago.

The short film is an exciting passion project of two local young people, Jacob Shields and Jordan Mundey (their bios are below). The film captures a range of community perspectives, including from local Aboriginal people, and highlights the importance and need for urgent action from all levels of Government and the local community to ensure biodiversity and the precious remaining environments on the Far South Coast are protected and preserved for all the generations to come.

Following the screening there will be a Q&A session with Cathy Griff (Greens candidate), Michael Holland (Labour candidate), Nathan Lygon (First Nations community leader and educator), and the filmmakers.

To help achieve a big win for the Far South Coast get tickets now.
