The All Living Things Environmental Film Festival (ALT EFF), in partnership with Rohini Nilekani Philanthropies, has launched one of India's largest environmental film funds. The INR 1.2 crore (approximately $126,000) initiative will provide grants to three documentary projects focused on environmental issues.
The fund aims to support filmmakers in telling stories about India's ecological challenges and solutions. Applications are open to Indian filmmakers, with a focus on projects that highlight climate change, biodiversity, and conservation.
Rohini Nilekani, a prominent philanthropist, has been a long-time supporter of environmental causes. The fund is part of her broader efforts to amplify voices in the environmental space through media and storytelling.
ALT EFF, founded in 2020, is India's first environmental film festival. It has grown to become a platform for environmental storytelling, showcasing films from around the world. The festival will also host workshops and mentorship programs for grantees.
