Welcome to the new website of the Green Lifestyle Film Festival!

Our next film festival is:

FRIDAY 19th to SUNDAY 21st  of MARCH  at UCLA's James Bridges Theatre.

The Green Lifestyle Film Festival is a 501 (c) 3 non profit , grassroots organization whose intention is to create a new vision for films. 

By organizing a weekend film festival annually in March, we invite filmmakers, sponsors, donors, press/media and the public who wish to join with our mission to change the modern day pervasive media messages based on fear and violence in films to films that address the reasons behind such distorted images of mankind and our role here, with films that challenge us and inspire us to live lives of inspiration and to become the magnificent beings that lie within each of us.

This festival is a celebration of film makers who dedicate their talents, income and energy to examining what sustainability really means:

from how we birth our young, to how we raise children, the construction and design of homes in which we live, to how we deal with illness, how we move about the earth in our physical bodies, and how all this is reflected in how we feed ourselves, to how we treat others in the animal kingdom all in the name of “the perfect steak” the “fashionable coat or accessories” or for entertainment, and its impact on all spheres of life on Planet Earth.

The Green Lifestyle Film Festival was created to address a concern by the film festival’s founder( Dorit), that medical costs, lack of proper preventive, medical care, allegiance to a failing disease management system, an increasingly industrialized food system  and non-distribution of very critical information have become a hindrance to achieving what is our most basic birthright- radiant, robust, vital health and free flow of  information pertaining to the sanctity of life and the nourishment of the  human spirit.  This is all reflected in the fear based, violence ridden films that are box office draws, and a media based culture that  projects and perpetuates these very themes.

So much  “green washing” is also taking place, all in the name of rampant consumerism, that fiction and fantasy need to be replaced by integrity and adherence to a compassionate, all encompassing new economy backed by meaningful actions.

The films selected for the Green Lifestyle Film Festival seek to fill that gap. Wisdom and reverence for the Laws of Nature are being presented as options for ignorance and fear based decisions.

The next  Green Lifestyle Film Festival ( GLFF), which is an international, non profit event , will be held at UCLA’s James Bridges Theatre in Los Angeles, California, USA   from Friday 19th to Sunday 21st March 2010.

On Friday, 19th March 2010, we begin with a Press Conference ( by invitation only)  at 3pm, and then we open to the public at 5pm with a Green Carpet followed by a reception featuring top living foods gourmet green chefs, then into the theatre with Q&A with the film makers after watching trailers of their films.

 Live music, live food demos, entertainers on the outdoors stage, lots of prizes and dancing, booths to inspire creative and evolutionary choices, abound in the Free Outdoors Arena all weekend long as the films are being shown in the theatre . This all culminates with a Gala Awards Dinner & Ceremony on Sunday night , the 21st March,  in Hollywood.
