Sunday, October 14th, 2018

A cinematic meditation on humanity’s massive re-engineering of the planet, “Anthropocene” is a four-years-in-the-making feature documentary film from the multiple-award-winning team of Jennifer Baichwal, Nicholas de Pencier, and Edward Burtynsky.

Third in a trilogy that includes “Manufactured Landscapes” and “Watermark”, the film follows the research of an international body of scientists, the Anthropocene Working Group who, after nearly 10 years of research, are arguing that the Holocene Epoch gave way to the Anthropocene Epoch in the mid-twentieth century, because of profound and lasting human changes to the Earth.
The filmmakers have traversed the globe using high end production values and state of the art camera techniques to document evidence and experience of human planetary domination.

"FOUR STARS! A delicate yet purposeful balance between observation and advocacy. Both shocking and beautiful, the film impresses itself on the viewer with the awesome scale of the imagery – and with the urgency behind it."
--The Globe and Mail
