An idyllic tropical island, one of the Philippines’ hottest new tourist destinations, is ground zero for a struggle between development and the environment. Against the backdrop of the climate crisis, three environmental crusaders try to stop politicians and businessmen from destroying the country’s “last ecological frontier”. 

Karl Malakunas, Director; Robert Bernardo, UNDP Leader of Governance and Peacebuilding; and Begüm Özkaynak, Economics and Sustainability expert and Professor at Boğaziçi University, will engage in a discussion after the screening.
