The Future Council takes its vegetable-oil-powered school bus on the road, seeking solutions to our greatest ecological challenges.

Filmmaker Damon Gameau (That Sugar Film) takes eight kids on the ultimate road trip across Europe to seek solutions to our greatest ecological challenges.

Travelling in their vegetable-oil-powered school bus, these young innovators hold candid, wise-beyond-their-years discussions with each other and the CEOs of major polluters. Along the way, they divulge their fears for the future whilst grounding each other in their still-childlike qualities. Bringing their school desks with them, the kids learn from Gameau, other activists and nature, but most of all from one another.

Gameau’s passion for the environment and social justice might have inspired this film, but the kids’ youthful spirit and insightful thinking drive it. Eight young minds from around the world (including Australian Ruby Rodgers, the granddaughter of rock legend Jimmy Barnes) are brought together in this optimistic portrait of the future they will continue to fight for.
