#IAmGreta @Dogwoof films is an inspiring documentary well worth going to your cinema and taking your kids. Q&A with @GeorgeMonbiot quite emotional too.

Very nice to be with a goodly crowd at @Saffronscreen, including families with children, to see I Am Greta (2020) : hoping for a courageous presentation of a girl denied her childhood by something far more important !

I've not felt moved by a documentary and by a person than by #IAmGreta. Thank you Greta for all you've done and for all you've overcome - you are a hero to me and many others around the world.

Such an emotional and powerful film. We know from the corona crisis that we can act, there is no excuse for not acting now to deal with the climate crisis #IAmGreta

“I don’t want you to be hopeful. I want you to panic. I want you to feel the fear I feel every day. I want you to act. I want you to act as you would in a crisis. I want you to act as if the house is on fire, because it is.” pic.twitter.com/UGo36V5ptl
Just seen #IAmGreta. Wow. So many emotions I can’t really put into words right now. And a really insightful Q&A with such a talented director led by @GeorgeMonbiot. An incredibly powerful film.

This is an extraordinary film about how a teenage girl with Asperger’s inspired a global movement that might just change the world.

Truly inspirational.#ClimateAction https://t.co/Gv9vAPmAKJ
@Dogwoof Incredibly moving film. @GeorgeMonbiot I think the reason Greta is able to cut through & filter out all the BS from the politics her total social freedom. Maybe one of the superpower benefits of her Asperger’s. #IAmGreta 🙏🌍🌱

I Am Greta, is the best documentary I've seen. Such a powerful, honest and raw account of .@GretaThunberg's incredible journey. Fantastic to see. @GeorgeMonbiot doing the Q&A afterwards as well. I can't recommend this doc more highly.

Wow wow wow.
I am a grandparent and I am here Greta. I will find a way to add my voice. Thank you for the inspiration. May I share your tears and frustration and anger. 🤗
A moving insight, a young girl’s journey to propel the importance of climate change to an oblivious world! The Shocking reactions of the old white men, who hold power in the western world, you hope that we as a human race can rise above and promote a change! @Dogwoof #iamgreta

We asked #IamGreta Director Nathan Grossman - Do you think school strikes are the best way for young people to get attention❓
