'Speaking Eep!' follows a team of women scientists working to conserve one of North America’s most climate-sensitive species: the American pika. Featuring great characters, fascinating science, and cinematic footage of stunning mountain vistas and adorable pikas, (not to mention lots of “eeps”!), this film transports viewers high up into Colorado’s Rocky Mountains for an experience that is sure to delight.⁠
⁠
'Snail Hunters' sees a team of evolutionary biologists from the University of Idaho travel to the Galápagos Islands to solve the Earth’s biodiversity crisis. The twist? They aren’t studying the iconic tortoises or blue footed boobies on this storied archipelago—they are Snail Hunters, studying a more unlikely subject in the crucible of evolution.⁠

'Speaking Eep!' and 'Snail Hunters' are screening Sunday, April 19th, at 5:30 pm, with a Q&A featuring directors of 'Speaking Eep!' Jim Beissel and JinYoung Kim, pika researcher Chris Ray, and Snail Hunters Luke Harmon, Christine Parent, and Brant Miller. Both films will screen again Thursday, April 23rd, at 5:30 pm.⁠

Once a proud symbol of the Baltic Sea, the common Once a proud symbol of the Baltic Sea, the common eider is now disappearing at an alarming rate. 'The Cry of the Eider' follows a group of dedicated people fighting to save this iconic sea bird from the brink of collapse. Through breathtaking footage and powerful yet intimate human stories, the film uncovers the deeper forces driving the eider’s decline — from environmental change to human impact — and asks what this tragedy reveals about the state of the Baltic Sea itself.⁠
⁠
'The Cry of the Eider' is screening alongside 'Island Willing.' Si la isla quiere ("Island Willing") is a portrait of Chile’s Robinson Crusoe Island. Home to more endemic species per square kilometer than the Galápagos, the community defends its culture of stewardship against outside pressures, with the island emerging as both setting and protagonist.⁠
⁠
See these two films of natural stewardship on Sunday, April 19th, at 5:00 pm, or Thursday, April 23rd, at 5:15 pm.⁠
