Flour Power

HOME is a feature film by Yann Arthus-Bertrand that addresses our impact on the planet and sets out our current situation. It was released on June 5th, World Environment Day, in over 50 countries and on every format : movie theatre, TV, DVD and Internet.

We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years to change the way we live, avert the depletion of natural resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth’s climate.

The stakes are high for us and our children. Everyone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being.

The movie, available on Youtube until the 14th of June, is a stunning piece of filmmaking. Shot entirely from the air (a hallmark of Yann Artus-Bertrand), it is one of the most fantastic visual feasts I’ve ever seen. With it comes a beautiful soundtrack that does an awesome job in setting the mood of the film. But HOME is not just eye candy, it will get you thinking about our relationship to the planet in ways few documentaries can. And maybe even wondering what you can do to help it.

I’ve embedded the movie below, but I highly recommend visiting the Youtube page for the HOME project and watching it in high definition. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.
