Tentang film ini

For the last 40 years acclaimed photographer Sebastião Salgado has travelled the world, tracing the footsteps of an ever-changing humanity. He has witnessed and documented many of the major events of our times, taking in wars, famine, genocide and exodus. But now he is embarking on a new journey: to discover pristine territories, grandiose landscapes and wild nature as part of a huge photographic tribute to the planet's beauty. Salgado's accomplished, moving work and his inspirational life are revealed to us in this Oscar-nominated documentary by his son, Juliano, and world-renowned filmmaker Wim Wenders, himself an avid photographer. Powerful, affecting and truly profound, it is not just a portrait of a great artist but one of life itself. 2014 Curzon Artificial Eye

An absolutely superb demonstration of the filmmaker's craft combined with and unforgettable story of self discovery. Brilliantly layered presentation of the subject's still photography interwoven with a narrative that is teased out simply perfectly. Could not recommend this film enough!

It's a beautiful documentary in itself and a very touching portrait of Sebastiao Salgado and his deep care about the human condition. It evokes a deep prayer in me to be a better human being myself and take more care of our Home.

An amazing artful movie about an amazing artist & philanthropist.
