What is the state of our planet and how can we find solutions that point to the future? This is the basic idea of the documentary “Who Are We” by Mark Bauder. It presents different perspectives and projects on the topic of climate change.
In his documentary “who are we” Director Mark Bauder is interested in the future of Earth and how we can influence that future. His images from space over dry rivers lead to Buddhist monasteries. An astronaut, ocean researcher and economist have their say.
“Who We Are” is a continuation of the propaganda ideas that died in 2016 Roger Williamson Which will now be carried into the present and the future as “a kind of stick delivery”.
As a soul mate, Willemsen showed the urgency of describing the situation and after the change: “I thought I should find a way to synthesize the initial research into describing the world with this wonderful form of literary confrontation of Roger Williamson.”
Determine the state of the earth
In order to find solutions to the climate crisis, the starting point of the film is to assess the state of our “very fragile and beautiful” planet. To this end, Bauder has compiled different perspectives from a wide range of scholars who have long been grappling with the world’s present and future.
In this way it can be shown that we all have the opportunity to coalesce at different points and participate. “This is a very important element, Roger Willemsen echoed and we are now trying to continue with the film.”
Understand cause and effect
Astronaut Alexander Barley For example, explore things from an internal drive and be flexible to new perspectives:
“When someone we know—Alexander Gerst—suddenly hovers above us and comes from the burning jungles of the Amazon to the wars of mankind in an unpolished 3-minute spectacle, it does something to me because I love the instant juxtaposition of beauty, between fragility and consequences.”
Resources are limited
Boder says that change is difficult as long as we continue to detach from the consequences we produce through our actions. It must be informed, for example through International Day of OvertakingToday, we use more resources that year than the Earth can produce this year.
“The good news is that we humans are the starting point for the world’s problems – and we are also part of the solution.”
