With jobs being automated and handed off to machines at an ever-increasing pace, it's only natural to consider what our future will look like.

Hi there.

I bet you've seen some great "films for action" that aren't in our library yet. 

Why not add that documentary or video directly to our library? Half of our best content was added by members. Submissions just need to be non-fiction, embeddable (like from Youtube or Vimeo), and related to activism or changing the world in some way.

Cheers,
The Films For Action team
