Synopsis
Featuring aerial footage from 54 countries, HOME is an ecological documentary film by French photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand which attempts to make a case for the planet as a single living organism which, through over-exploitation and the plundering of its natural resources, has entered a critical phase where only concerted action and "a new awareness" based on "moderation, intelligence and sharing" can avert disaster. The DVD includes a ‘making of’ documentary.
