Kyriakos Liarakos, Festival Director

The EcoFrames Environmental Film Festival is more than a showcase; it’s a dynamic platform where art, activism, and environmental awareness converge. Based in Greece, EcoFrames is organized by the same dedicated team that has successfully run the Peloponnisos International Documentary Festival for over a decade. Building on our experience and passion for documentary cinema, we established EcoFrames to focus specifically on environmental issues, utilizing our Solar Cinema Project to bring films directly to communities.

We present films exploring the intricate relationship between humanity and nature, tackling urgent themes like climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, and sustainable living. We welcome submissions of both short and feature-length documentaries and fiction films that illuminate our planet's beauty, fragility, and the critical challenges we face. Our curated selection aims to challenge perspectives, deepen understanding, and empower audiences to act. All screenings are free and open to the public.

​Leveraging the Solar Cinema Van (a member of the Solar World Cinema network), EcoFrames brings environmental films directly to communities, transforming public squares, natural landscapes, forests, and beaches into captivating, open-air cinematic venues. This immersive approach fosters a profound connection with nature and broadens access for diverse audiences. Beyond screenings, we offer interactive experiences including panel discussions, workshops, and community-building events.

Accessibility is paramount at EcoFrames. All films are adapted for individuals with disabilities, featuring closed captions, audio descriptions, and, where appropriate, simplified language versions with dubbing. We strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone can engage with these powerful stories.

Our mission is to raise awareness, foster understanding of sustainability, and inspire action. We believe film possesses a unique power to ignite conversations, shift mindsets, and catalyze positive change. We extend our impact beyond the festival through year-round engagement via touring film series, educational programs, and digital platforms.

We are dedicated to inspiring the next generation to build a sustainable future. Through engaging programs like interactive workshops, youth filmmaking initiatives, and nature-focused activities, we nurture creativity, foster a connection with the natural world, and encourage informed advocacy, empowering young people to create a healthier planet.

Join EcoFrames and be part of a vibrant movement dedicated to protecting our planet. Together, we amplify the voices of environmental storytellers and create a lasting impact.
