What Doesn’t Kill Us Makes Us Drought Tolerant Film Festival

Posted May 11, 2026

What Doesn’t Kill Us Makes Us Drought Tolerant is an eco-film festival in its first year, calling for broad, adventurous submissions that engage with life atop a planet in crisis. We welcome films about climate change, conservation, ecology, renewable energy, rewilding, permacomputing, water scarcity, drought, pollution, biodiversity, habitat loss, recycling, permaculture, environmental justice, or the numerous applicable topics that emerge in questions about our planet through the media of short films.

Submit in thematic categories where short documentaries, narrative, poetic, experimental, and difficult to classify are all welcome. Each category will be shaped by a guest curator or curatorial team, giving the festival a dynamic collection of provocations and questions for viewers of all ages. The festival will screen live in person on November 27 in the Wayne L. Prim Theater as a free event in the spirit of “Buy Nothing Day.”
