Om den här filmen

HUMAN is a collection of stories about and images of our world, offering an immersion to the core of what it means to be human. Through these stories full of love and happiness, as well as hatred and violence, HUMAN brings us face to face with the Other, making us reflect on our lives. From stories of everyday experiences to accounts of the most unbelievable lives, these poignant encounters share a rare sincerity and underline who we are – our darker side, but also what is most noble in us, and what is universal. Our Earth is shown at its most sublime through never-before-seen aerial images accompanied by soaring music, resulting in an ode to the beauty of the world, providing a moment to draw breath and for introspection. HUMAN is a politically engaged work which allows us to embrace the human condition and to reflect on the meaning of our existence.

Enjoyed the video; thought provoking and real. I would have enjoyed it more if there were descriptions of the nationality/language of each person who spoke as well as some description of the places and actions of the places being shown between topic discussions. Thank you for the free video view. It was time well spent.

Part one of a three-part documentary of interviews with people from various cultures. Excellent cinematography and background music. In part one, people talk about their experiences with love, abuse and poverty, mostly in 3rd-world countries. These are remarkable stories of people who have survived and thrived in spite of tremendous hardship. Moving but depressing, because you will wish that you could do something to help and comfort them and/or change their situations, but fighting to just survive is the inescapable reality for most people. It's subtitled (being in many languages), so watch it in full-screen and HD if you can. It would be nice to be able to download this before watching, as there were a lot of pauses in the video streaming (but worth the wait).

This spectacular documentary takes us through a series of scenery and footage, bringing us to new and unfamiliar habitats, lifestyles, traditions, and walks of life. Not only is this emotional documentary a look at how we all are connected in some way, but it is a focus on the lack of love, and can be looked upon as the state of everyday life, and reality; also reminding us , to be thankful for what we already have,.
