DocLands Film Festival 2021 presents a conversation with 'Last Days At Paradise High' Co-Directors Emily Thomas and Derek Knowles, with Film Subjects Virginia Partain, Harmony von Stockhausen and Kody Lesch with CFI Director of Education Joanne Parsont.

After the most destructive fire in California history destroys the town of Paradise, the end of the school year takes on added meaning for the seniors and teacher at the local high school. Told from the perspective of America’s youngest climate refugees, Last Days at Paradise High is an intimate portrait of finding home after it’s gone.
