In Living in the Future’s Past, Academy Award winner Jeff Bridges guides us on a journey into the heart of human nature and explores how our species operates in an inescapably interconnected world. Featuring experts from across cultures, scientific disciplines, and political philosophies, the film contextualizes our modern predicament within a geologic time frame. Far from another alarmist film on the impending destruction of our planet, Living in the Future’s Past illuminates how each of us can contribute to saving Earth and furthering humanity. This film is produced and presented by Jeff Bridges along with filmmaker Susan Kucera.

This film has won the following prestigious awards: 1st place on the International Film Festival Scientific Documentaries –Godolo International Film Festival, Gold Medal for Best Documentary on Climate Change and Sustainability—New York Film Festival, Best Narrator, Cannes—AFI World Peace Initiative, Best in Show—IndieFEST, and many more prestigious awards.

The filmmaker’s statement: “Living in the Future’s Past is a definitive departure from the usual ‘ecological documentary.’ As a documentarian, I’ve always been interested in what makes us and other animals tick. The film gives us a greater understanding of both the physical and unconscious , mechanisms at play in our inner and outer world, like ‘optional foraging strategy’ or sexual selection. We’re not the only animals with social and economic relationships to the environment.” – Susan Kucera.

This documentary movie is 83 minutes long, so run time will exceed our normal one-hour program.

Come learn how you as an individual can make a difference regarding our past and into the future!

Terry Bryant will present this movie. Terry has been the Executive Director of the Ocean Isle Museum Foundation since July of 2012. She retired with the state of North Carolina after serving in the field of education in the community college system. She also spent seven years at the NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher. She has a two-year degree in accounting, a bachelor’s in recreation/leisure studies, and a master’s in educational media: instructional computer technology. She is married to Ronnie Bryant, former CIO at Brunswick County Community College.
