The All Living Things Environmental Film Festival (ALT EFF) is back with its 2024 edition. The ALT EFF is scheduled to take place from November 22 to December 8. The film festival will have a total of 72 films showcased. Out of these, 38 films will mark their India premieres.
ALT EFF promises to bring something new to the table – to take these thought-provoking films beyond traditional venues. For the first time, screenings will be held not only in metro cities but also in 55 locations in small towns and villages across India over the festival period. This will be in addition to 45 screenings taking place in 14 tier-1 cities.
This is with an effort to bring environmental awareness at various grassroots levels, ensuring that conversations around environmental protection and sustainability reach every corner of the country.

Festival Director, Kunal Khanna said, “We are thrilled to announce the 2024 dates for ALT EFF and expand our screenings to non-urban regions. It’s crucial to engage communities beyond metro cities in these discussions, and cinema has the power to connect people from different walks of life. Bearing in mind the diversity of languages in India, this year we have used AI to translate foreign language films into regional languages, along with curating films made in regional languages.”
Dia Mirza who will serve as one of the esteemed jury members at ALT EFF 2024 said, “I am honoured to be part of ALT EFF, a festival that is not just about films but about building a dialogue around sustainability and the future of our planet. The power of cinema to evoke empathy and inspire change is unparalleled, and I look forward to watching films that reflect the incredible efforts being made globally to protect our environment.”
The All Living Things Environmental Film Festival (ALT EFF) aims to create awareness, inspire action, and catalyse positive change through the medium of films.
