The Spirit of Action Prize is the Santa Cruz Film Festival's signature award. It recognizes films that highlight challenges in our society and identify solutions. Awards are chosen by audience feedback scores. Your film REALLY encompassed what we were going for when we invented this award several years ago.
Taking a bleak environmental disaster and creating a joyful and universal
call to action is about as Spirit of Action as it gets.
Elizabeth Gummere, President of the SCFF Board of Directors
