We’ve all had powerful, sometimes transformative experiences of Nature, in our own explorations, with family and friends, any time we get a chance to get out and get into rhythm with our natural world. Nature Walks offer an opportunity for us to convene virtually and share experiences of many of the energies and environments that move us.

Please join Meaningful Movies Bellevue for the first film of our 2021 - 2022 season. We will be screening Invisible Hand for free! We will also be joined by a guest speaker immediately afterwards, so grab a drink and snack and get ready for a full 2 hour event.
Invisible Hand is the world’s first documentary film on the Rights of Nature Movement. Executive Producer, Mark Ruffalo, states “You hear time and time again that a corporation has the rights of a person. The idea that Nature has no rights whatsoever is absurd." This “paradigm shifting” story raises questions about the fate of capitalism and democracy and asks us all to consider the perspective of “Who speaks for Nature?" Invisible Hand documents front line communities that are providing a blueprint forward.
