Cultural / Context information for the jury

N/A

Tell the jury about the casting process.

Casting was important to this film, to reflect both today's youth who are generally politically involved and make up the majority of the environmental activists population, as well as the older generation who might perhaps be a little less active on the environmental front. It needed to feel natural and unpretentious, still inspiring.
