Re/Action Festival 2025

 

The Re/Action festival returned to Leicester in 2025 filling the city centre with bold ideas, playful adventures and fresh creativity celebrating nature, community and the environment. My film explores the festival stating in Jubilee Square where we meet the giant Antman, Wasp and several giant butterflies of Urban Oasis by Neighbourhood Watch Stilts International. Next up the premiere of Spill by Gayatri Munogee a storytelling og the 2020 Wakashio oil spill a real life environmental tragedy that ends in hope and rebuilding. A look next at the creative corner where all sorts of amazing things are being created with a t-shirt swap and design area and more. We move onto festival regulars Highly Sprung with their look at the energy crisis in Accelerate. We end the film with the spectacular sign spinners of Mercurial Dance directing visitors to the various "hubs" of the festival.
