Synopsis :

«I was not an environmentalist when I began to travel around the world 30 years ago. I saw the planet shrink before my eyes, and I went from being carefree and believing that we live in an infinite and unchanging world to realizing that the world is finite and vulnerable. During the past 20 years, I have been fighting to make others conscious of the environmental perils but especially to mobilize others to act. Cinema is the perfect medium, both in France and abroad, to discover these threats and share my feelings on the subject : that everyone sees the Earth and Humanity as they are and as I saw them ; that Man find his own place in time and space. This film is a wake-up call: let us not allow any more time to go by without change. It is also a window of hope: let us seize the occasion to find ourselves again, mobilize human intelligence, giving meaning once more to the idea of progress.»
Nicolas Hulot
