KL Eco Film Festival is Coming Soon

The 5th Kuala Lumpur Eco Film Festival

What is the 5th Kuala Lumpur Eco Film Festival?
The Kuala Lumpur Eco Film Festival (KLEFF) is the nation's first and biggest film festival on environmental films from all around the world. Started in 2008, the KLEFf has travelled to more than sevel states in Malaysia, including Sabah, offering Malaysians a unique chance to catch some of the best and award-winning local and international environmental-themed films in several official festival venues in the country. Apart from film screenings, the Festivalalso offers the public a unique chance to learn more about environmental issues, actions, solutions and efforts in which they (the public) can be part of. This comes in the form of exhibitions, on-site workshops, forums, talks and other activities. The weekend festival aims to inspire more Malaysians to adopt, practice and embrace sustainability in their daily lives. This year, the Festival will be held at the fairground of Dataran Tunku Canselor and the film screenings will be held at the Experimental Theatre.

There are several interesting workshops for youth, it is hoped that the Festival would attract more youth to participate in the sustainability-related talks and events.
