Out Of This World presented by Environmental Film Festival Australia (EFFA) is a thought-provoking online program running from Thursday 29 October - Sunday 8 November 2020 with films being screened on demand that will engage audiences in connective, participative and surprising ways. 

EFFA is taking a close look at the interactions between science, technology, philosophy and art, and aims to facilitate conversations that make the familiar unfamiliar - or strangely familiar and familiarly strange.

Out Of This World will provide a social space to develop ideas, imagine the future, and rethink our relationship with ecology, science, fiction, science fiction, film, and more broadly, the Earth.

This series of events kicks off with a keynote address from Dr Lewis Dartnall and the screening of Poissonsexe (Fishlove) by Olivier Babinet on Thursday 29 October at 7pm.

Followed by seven feature films including the Australian premiere of Echoes of the Invisible screened on-demand and covering topics like the meat of the future, eight men and women sealed in an airtight terrarium in the Arizona desert, an adventurous quest that illustrates the issues of the modern world through the eyes of a child and many more!

There are also panel discussions, masterclasses, a cooking workshop, mini-lectures and free kids activities.
