The Environmental Film Festival at Yale (EFFY) is one of America's premier student-run environmental film festivals.

The goal of EFFY is to the highlight important environmental issues of our times via compelling stories and moving images. Every spring, EFFY showcases incisive, cutting-edge films that highlight the environmental and social issues of our time. Expert panels of filmmakers, celebrities, scholars, journalists, activists, and public servants provide our audiences with context, criticism, and greater insights after most screenings. Interactive non-film events like block parties, workshops, and nature walks complement the screenings. Send information requests to yaleeffy@gmail.com.
