The Home Project

I feel it's my responsibility to draw your attention to this movie. Remove the voice over and it makes for a simply beautiful documentary of images from the air. Listen to the voice over and it makes a compelling case for action. It is beautiful, heart-breaking, uplifting and pretrifying all at the same time, but i implore you, please take the time to watch it and think about what is being said. Think about your contribution to the issues. Think about your life, the lives of your friends and the future lives of those that will come after us.

Whether you are touched or not, how can you fail to be, please pass this on.

"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.

Yann Arthus-Bertrand"
