The Outlook for Someday began in 2007. The mission for anyone up to the age of 20 was to make a short film, up to 5 minutes, about how you see the future unfolding; to look at your world through a lens of sustainability; to give your personal take on what matters to you, focussed on the future.
The Outlook for Someday 2007
