Never has there been a documentary like HOME, describing our relation to the planet in which we’ve inhabited for nearly 200,000 years, without the need to describe it. “From the sky, there’s less need for explanations,” said director Yann Arthus-Bertrand. Through the most epic cinematography imaginable, HOME brings the most unique footage from over 50 countries, all from the skies above us, sharing the Earth’s riches and laying a foundation stone for the structure that we must all rebuild.
“Rebuild” is putting it lightly. Humanity has succeeded in disrupting the balance of our planet and its ecosystems, more so in the past 50 years than ever before in our entire existence. We have very high price to pay if this trend continues. We’ve been drilled about the need to modify our infrastructure, using renewable energy sources, recycling items that would otherwise end up in landfills, and being more aware in our daily lives by turning off electronics when not in use, driving less, etc. We have only 10 years to reverse this trend, and the only way is to get everyone on the same page…by becoming aware of the full extent of our spoliation of our planet. So, we all must decide what we want to do with it…
This is exactly what HOME accomplishes. HOME will get you thinking about humanity’s relationship to the planet we all inhabit. The special thing about this documentary (aside from it’s incomparable visual beauty)? It’s available for streaming on YouTube…all 1:33:18 of it. Yes, in HD, too.
