The climate wins! Within six months, young people from German-speaking Switzerland were able to produce their commercial for the climate with the support of film and acting professionals. Under the direction of jury president and Zurich city councillor Michael Baumer, four awards were presented. The jury also included Christian Jungen (Director of the Zurich Film Festival), Jörg Wild (CEO of Energie 360°), Karin Heberlein (filmmaker), Nadine Arnet (actress) and Silvia Banfi Frost (Energy Officer of the City of Zurich).
A total of 17 climate films made it into the final selection. "With Energiefilm Züri, we offer young people between the ages of 13 and 18 the opportunity to get involved in climate issues with self-produced films, thus giving them a broad hearing for this important topic," says Daniela Mininni, Head of Communications at Energie 360°.
