We spoke with Nigar Mat, events coordinator of the Bozcaada International Ecological Documentary Festival, about the festival’s bond with the local community, the island’s ecological problems and what it takes to sustain a festival through solidarity.

Bozcaada International Ecological Documentary Festival: ‘Local, small, slow’

Directed by and starring Ben Affleck, Animals uses a child’s kidnapping to test class privilege, racial prejudice and the value placed on a human life. We connected with Ben Affleck, Kerry Washington, Adriana Paz, Luis Gerardo Méndez and Gillian Anderson from the film’s star-studded cast and, taking the film as a starting point, talked about prejudice, privilege and the limits of empathy in moments of crisis.
