When Matt Briggs came to Bent for support on his environmental documentary “Deep Green,” Bent’s Executive Producer Ray Di Carlo didn’t hesitate to get behind his cause.

And Now, both the full length documentary and one of Bent’s animated shorts produced in concord with the film have won great honors at the 7th annual Artivist Film Festival.



Deep Green is the first documentary devoted entirely to showing the world how we can stop climate change. First-time filmmaker Matt Briggs takes audiences to nine countries, including China, to speak with the people with the best ideas, technologies and restorative solutions to end our dependence on fossil fuels and avoid the disastrous consequences of global warming.

Animation plays a key part in the mostly live action film, explains Briggs. “We used animation because it is fun and can simplify a problem and a solution so people remember it.”

The documentary features several distinctive explanatory and interstitial animations by BENT.
