Coming to Vue Edinburgh Omni, Edinburgh Ocean Terminal, Hamilton and Stirling.
Told through never-seen-before footage, this intimate documentary from Swedish director Nathan Grossman explores Greta’s rise to worldwide fame – and includes a Q&A with Greta, exclusive to Vue.
Taking place on Sunday 18 October at 3pm, this special screening provides an insight into how a shy schoolgirl and her one-person school strike outside Swedish Parliament sparked a global movement of school strikes and action on climate change, whilst Greta herself became a world-famous activist.
The story culminates in Greta’s wind-powered voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to speak at the UN Climate Action Summit in New York City.
