FILM FESTIVAL NEWS: Dallas-based, Environmentally-focused film fest, EARTHxFilm CEO Ryan Brown, Founder/President Michael Cain Announce Plans for Debut in April

Cain said “EARTHxFilm will be more than a film festival. It will utilize the power of film to build on a foundation of partnerships with influencers, thought leaders, top brands, and environmental organizations around the world. When the lights go down, the films will transport our audiences, but when the lights go back up, we will seek to engage and empower each audience member to participate in what we see as the vital challenge of our lifetime – to ensure there will be lifetimes to come.”
