One Person Can Save the World

One Minute to Save the World 2019 Finalist.
“An environmental enthusiast goes on a mission to save the world! But will her quest be too difficult to achieve alone?”

At the start of the year PQATV and The Children’s Media Conference challenged young filmmakers to make a one minute short film on the theme of ‘One Minute to Save the World’.

We asked them to make a film about something that they believe in. A film that makes us think, that is authentic to them.

Director Statement:
“Why I made the film: This film is targeted at a younger audience and uses comedy to express a deeper, more poignant point. I am very passionate about preserving the environment and I think it’s essential to teach children the ways in which we can save our world: the simple act of picking up litter for example. ”


Cast & Crew:

Eleanor Creevy – “Person who saves the world”
George Cook – “Helpful Person”
