The film explores the Anthropocene epoch, the two centuries of progress that led up to the ecological crisis we face today, and questions the scientific, economic, and political stakes of the modern era.

If you dare to peek through your own denial about where this planet is headed as a result of our species' progress aka overproduction/overconsumption/greed, see this film. Incredibly well done. Not for the faint of heart, brilliant history of mankind's excesses and where they will take us.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
