Earth Cinema
Waiheke Earth Cinema Circle (an offshoot of Spiritual Cinema Circle) is a group of people who get together every month for an offering of films from all over the world that explore the natural world — and fundraising for Island causes at the same time.
Earth Cinema evenings are held on the second Wednesday of every even month at Waiheke Community Cinema and are sponsored by Waiheke Wellness and by the Cinema. Entry is by donation ($10 suggested) or by koha, and proceeds go to a different community group every month. Screenings are restricted to Cinema Circle members, and you can join at the door (annual sub of $2).
October's films are:
For the Price of a Cup of Coffee: If you don't already drink from a reusable cup, what's stopping you from making the switch?
Papa Tortuga: Fernando Mantano has worked tirelessly for 33 years to bring the Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle back from the brink of extinction.
It's Not Just Empty Space: Dr David Suzuki explains in basic terms how we've gotten to the place of real crisis on the planet and what we can each do to make a difference going forward.
King Corn: Two friends find out just how ubiquitous corn is in the American diet, and how that affects people's efforts to live healthy and green.
