‘Black Cockatoo Crisis’ presented by Movies with Meaning & Denmark Environment Centre

26/02/2023 @ 4:30 pm - 7:30 pm

TBlack Cockatoo Crisis is a feature length documentary film project that includes a comprehensive social impact campaign aimed at moving audiences to action and pushing for change.
The project grew out of an earlier film project the director and producer Jane Hammond had made in 2020 called Cry of the Forests (also screened at the civic centre). That independent film was complimented by an intense social impact campaign to end native forest logging. The WA Forest Alliance was the film’s impact partner and coordinated the campaign. Ten months after the release of the film the WA Labor Government committed to end all native forest logging by 2024.
Jane Hammond has again teamed up with the WA Forest Alliance to present Black Cockatoo Crisis and the team has been joined by the Wilderness Society.  
While native forest logging will grind to a halt at the end of 2023, strip mining the northern jarrah forest and other critical black cockatoo habitat is continuing and expanding.
Jane will join a local panel for a Q&A after the screening

Tickets: $12 Adults \  $6 under 12’s. Available from Humanitix and at the door.
