Home by Yann Arthus-Bertrand
Home is a documentary by Yann Arthus-Bertrand, a French photographer, reporter and journalist. The documentary chronicles the present day state of the Earth, its climate and how we as the dominant species have long-term repercussions on its future. A theme expressed throughout the documentary is that of linkage; how all organisms and the Earth are linked in a “delicate but crucial” balance with each other, and how no organism can be self-sufficient. It shows the diversity of life on Earth and how humanity is threatening the ecological balance of the planet. The film is entirely composed of aerial shots of various places around Earth, taken in over 50 countries in the process. The movie was released simultaneously on June 5 in cinemas all over the world, on BD, DVD, and on YouTube.
