Earth

In Earth, acclaimed filmmaker Nikolaus Geyrhalter (Our Daily Bread, Homo Sapiens) observes people in mines, quarries, and fantastically mammoth construction sites where humans are transforming the planet on an unimaginable scale. Stunningly shot around the world at Spanish copper mines and Italian quarries to Canadian tar sands and Californian deserts, Geyrhalter interviews the workers at these sites to ask how they view the immense environmental and technological changes. Winner of numerous film festival awards, EARTH fosters an urgent and thought-provoking meditation on the irrevocable changes wrought by humans on our terrestrial home.
