ABOUT THE FILM

Climate change is here. As heat domes, atmospheric rivers, and wildfires reshape our world, how do we protect what matters most? EMERGENCE: Women in the Storm goes beyond the headlines to explore how women are navigating climate emergencies.

Recent disasters, including the wildfire that burned the town of Lytton to the ground and the devastating floods in the Fraser Valley, are seen through the eyes of survivors, while emergency responders and community organizers provide perspectives on preparing for – and moving beyond – the worst. Meghan Fandrich’s reflective readings from Burning Sage: Poems from the Lytton Fire, written after losing her town to the blaze, are woven together with stories of healing, resilience and hope in the face of an uncertain future.

Intimate and beautifully crafted, the film offers insights on how to live in this new reality, finding ways to carry on without giving up

I live in the city of Toronto, originally known as Tkaronto, on the traditional lands of the Haudenosaunee, the Wendat, Anishinaabe, and the Mississauga of the Credit, the first peoples of this land, and in the watershed of Mimico Creek and the Humber River. I acknowledge that I am a party to Treaty 13 and commit to working for justice and reconciliation with the Indigenous nations of this land.
