"Ecopiphany" - pitch
A narrative short film about how if one person can make simple changes in his or her daily life, it will have a tremendous positive impact on their community’s environmental future.
A simple man, living his life – with no thought to the state of his environment – no thought to his actions - hears a voice…is it his own? The voice warns of his constant neglect to the environment and to his community. The voice offers suggestions, begs, pleads; but the stubborn man refuses to acknowledge the changes he alone can make. In a style reminiscent of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, or Capra’s It’s A Wonderful Life, the man is shown a glimpse of the dismal future of his world in global meltdown. He realizes, then, that doing nothing is just like giving up.
