Rubber Jellyfish The balloon documentary

Get involved

Host a Screening

Three local governments have banned balloon releases. Each one followed somebody showing this film to a room full of people.

Thank you for considering it

Most of our screenings are community events where the film’s message is amplified by speakers from organisations with a similar message.

There is a lively and growing global conversation happening around marine debris, plastic-free living and sustainability. We are thrilled that our film can play a role in it.

Some screenings also feature a Q&A with the filmmaker, or with others who appeared in the film and are authorities on the subject.

Some organisations run remote screenings: instead of showing the film in a cinema, we issue a set of access codes so audience members watch from home at an agreed time, then come together for the discussion.

How it works

  • Get in touch

    Tell us roughly where, when and who for. We will send a complimentary high-resolution download of the full or reduced-length film.

    Contact us

  • Pick a format

    A venue screening, or a remote screening with access codes. The reduced-length version leaves more room for discussion afterwards.

  • Line up a speaker

    A local conservation group, or a Q&A with the filmmaker where the timing works. This is what turns a screening into an action.

  • Tell us the date

    We will add it to the public screenings calendar and share it on our social channels so people nearby can find it.
