We Don’t Want To Believe What We Know

“We don’t want to believe what we know,” says Yann Arthus-Bertrand. The French photographer and  filmmaker, who has spent years traveling the world documenting its wonders, is convinced of the importance of sustainable development. His message, through his photographic projects,  is that each and every individual should take note that we are all personally responsible for the future of our planet.

His latest project is the movie Home. The movie website states:

We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years to change the way we live, avert the depletion of natural resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth’s climate.

The stakes are high for us and our children. Everyone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being.

For this purpose, HOME needs to be free. A patron, the PPR Group, made this possible. EuropaCorp, the distributor, also pledged not to make any profit because Home is a non-profit film.

HOME has been made for you : share it! And act for the planet.

Check out the trailer for Home below. If you want to watch an entertaining and passionate 15-minute speech that Mr. Arthus-Bertrand gave at a TED Conference earlier this year, click here. To download Home in its entirety, click here.
