Programmed to compliment the One World Week Exhibition in the Gallery, this brilliant new documentary asks the question - When does practice become protest? Or protest, poetry?

Award-winning documentary filmmaker Fiona Cunningham-Reid presents an intimate portrait of internationally acclaimed artists Heather Ackroyd and Dan Harvey.

Preoccupied by the climate and ecological crises, Ackroyd & Harvey’s work has become a rallying cry for the environmental movement, winning them a global following.

Cunningham-Reid’s doc offers singular access into their quest to shake humanity into action on climate catastrophe, including their collaboration with Extinction Rebellion and co-founding the movement Culture Declares Emergency.

A meticulous, thoughtful film, Ackroyd & Harvey asks: where do art and hope stand in our very uncertain world?
