Film Screening & Talkback: The [Conserv]atives

Presented in partnership with City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, Aspen Ideas Festival, and World Business Chicago

​What does climate action look like when it crosses the aisle? The [Conserv]atives follows four conservatives on the front lines of environmental advocacy — and asks whether the climate movement has been leaving half the country behind.

​This free screening, hosted at the Chicago Cultural Center, will be followed by a talkback and Q&A featuring Benji Backer (Founder, Nature is Nonpartisan), Oscar-shortlisted director Nadia Gill (Co-Director, The [Conserv]atives), moderated by Matthew Roling (Executive Director of the Abrams Climate Academy at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management)

​Doors open: 11AM
