Filmfest DC - Human
Run Time: 143 Minutes
Human
Yann Arthus-Bertrand
France, 2016
Breathtaking in its scope, this documentary touches on love, murder, sexuality, mortality, and much, much more. It also shows us our planet as only movies shown on the big screen can: vast, beautiful landscapes, the world as seen from on high with mankind dwarfed within it. Director and acclaimed photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand spans the globe to document the land and its peoples—and what amazing stories they have to tell. From confessions of slaughter to poignant tales of love, we get it all. The movie alternates between testimonials and aerial shots of the land. What we hear is sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes uplifting, and always riveting. The aerial shots are staggering; the film is mind-blowing in its visual splendor and radically humane in its concerns. Very few works of art are this ambitious, this spectacular, this big. Prepare to be swept off your feet.—Vancouver International Film Festival
In multiple languages with English subtitles
