Home-a film by Yann Arthus-Bertrand

This is a highly recommended film for all people in this world.
============================================
I've watched it. Unfortunately, I didn't see the first half hour of it.

Sad, isn't it?

Well, let's get to the point. This film starts by introducing how we human came about, how Earth and life is created. Gradually, they advance to the main point of the film-human's action that shape Earth. This part is long, and it covers many aspects of human's actions. This part is the pessimistic part of the film, and sounds like there is no hope for the future. Later, in the last half hour of the film, the tone of the film becomes optimistic, as it tells us what human is doing to save Earth. Finally, at the end of the show, they emphasised that it is everyone's responsibility to give a hope to Earth.

I give credits to the cinematography, way to convey the message and the whole product. Especially the background music and sound effect. With the narration align to the music, the atmosphere while watching is intense inside your body. The heartbeat is unusual, somekind of exceptionally slow, to let you listen what the narrator say clearly.

The scenery they take is breathtaking, and also frightening. There are many places Yann Arthus-Bertrand filmed, and all of them are spectacular.

But, this is not my point. The point I want to say is......

We have the power to change. Yes, it is easier to be said than done. But, we can make the first move. I am not going to be hypocrite. But, let me just convey the message once again, we as the steward of Earth, have the obligation to maintain the Earth. If we keep neglecting the alarm Mother Earth rang, we ourselves will face the consequences.

For us, and the future generations, do your part.

(If you haven't watch, go forth and watch it!)
