In this award-winning Australian documentary film, director Johan Gabrielsson explores ‘the most pressing question in a changing global climate: do we have the leadership to take us to a greener future?’

Scientist and author Professor Tim Flannery takes the search for climate leadership and vision to the corridors of power and the frontlines of climate change.

Each interview offers lessons and personal stories. Tim talks to a West Papuan villager, a former Chair of COP15 in Copenhagen, an industrialist-turned-hydrogen-champion, a former prime minister of Australia, the CEO of an Aboriginal land council, an international human rights activist, a Chief of the Kwaio tribe in the Solomon Islands, an Australian state government energy minister, a barefoot engineer and climate change advisor to Joe Biden, a Torres Strait activist on the frontline of sea level rise, and a Scottish geographer.

‘…being reminded of the people who are working towards change gives you hope rather than despair at the amount of work ahead’ – ABC Radio National
