2025 Global Media Festival Film Screening: "Festin Boreal" + Live Q&A
A wounded moose escapes its hunters, later dying deep in the forest and becoming a communal feast. As the seasons pass, mammals, birds, and insects partake in the banquet—engaging in games, rituals, and conflicts. This visually stunning and critically acclaimed documentary offers a poignant reflection on death, its natural place in the world, and its deeper meaning and purpose. Wild Feast is an incredible feat of filmmaking and an innovative take on the nature documentary.

Global Media Festival
The Global Media Festival is Georgia Tech’s annual film and discussion series focusing on sustainability and the UN SDGs across languages and cultures.
The GMF 2025 is part of Ivan Allen College’s Year of Liberal Arts, a year-long exploration of the intersection of humanities and STEM, transforming the future of education and research. This year’s festival is a collaboration among faculty from the School of Modern Languages, School of Literature, Media, and Communication, and School of History and Sociology.
The 2025 lineup features 10 curated events showcasing films from Canada, China, Cuba, France, Germany, India, Japan, the Middle East, Russia, and the United States. Through exclusive discussions with directors, screenwriters, and experts, we will explore global issues including food production, eco-tourism, land use, climate change, gender inequality, autism, and war & peace.
All screenings are free and open to the public! Events take place in the Cypress and Atlantic Theaters at Georgia Tech’s John Lewis Student Center. In addition to promoting sustainability, the festival celebrates global food culture—free international cuisine will be provided at select events.
