The SE Iowa Sierra Club, Fairfield Rotary, Fairfield Public Library and Fairfield Arts and Convention Center are collaborating on a new film series called Walkin' the Talk. This is intended to be an uplifting series highlighting individuals, groups and communities who are rethinking how we interact with our planet, serving as role models for all of us to reflect on how we might want to engage in different ways. 

The second film in the Walkin' the Talk series is 2040, to be shown on Friday, December 10 at the library. In this film, Damon Gameau embarks on a journey to explore what the future could look like in 2040 if we simply embrace the best solutions already available to us to improve our planet and shift them into the mainstream. Structured as a visual letter to his 4-year-old daughter, Damon blends traditional documentary footage with dramatised sequences and high-end visual effects to create a vision board for his daughter and our planet.

There are two options for viewing the film: 

1.  Preregister to attend in person in the library's meeting room by calling 641-472-6551 ext. 2.  Seating will be socially distanced and masks will be required.
