2011 Environmental Film Festival at Yale (EFFY 2011)

For those of us fortunate to live in the Great New Haven, CT area the EFFY will be held starting March 25, 2011. All the films are open to the public and FREE.  The films have their directors or writers speaking to the audience after the presentation, often with a Q & A. During the week, one of films is a premiere showing which is always fun.  For me this will be the third year in attendence. The first year EFFY was held during my April vacation and I went to every film. Last year I attended just about every night. I missed one night because I had already seen the movie and the other night I had a previous committment. As you can tell from the festival's name, every film has to do with the aspects of the environment, air, water, land, energy and natural resources. This is my favorite week of the year, the films are very informational, the conversations with the directors and writers are entertaining and insightful.

The films for 2011 have just been announced.  And a big thank you to the Yale School of Forestry, their students and the sponsors of the festival.
