A group of environmental and social justice films are part of the BIFF Call 2 Action program \u2013 films with a message that move filmgoers to learn more and take actions to make a difference.\u00a0\u00a0 These films are paired with local groups and followed up with an after film discussion that often includes the film makers.\u00a0 You can find a full listing of Call 2 Action films here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
