Introduction

 For the 13th time, Kuala Lumpur Eco Film Festival will annually have their own film screening in the festival. However, for this time around, our earth has been attacked by the pandemic, covid-19. Therefore, we are glad to introduce our own built-up website which is, KLEFFlix. KLEFFlix is an initiative that EcoKnights has come out to support our film screening for this 13th Kuala Lumpur Eco Film Fest. For this year, we have received 118 film submissions ←from various filmmakers from all around the world that are related to our environment. For this year, our theme is “Climate (In)Justice”. However, we also have more themes to offer this year which are marine conservation, water conservation, wildlife, community, youth empowerment and more.
