In 1990 David Vostell directed the feature The Being from Earth.
This feature, with German title Das Wesen der Erde, tells the fantastic story of a being/creature,
a mixture between animal and plant, born out of the sands of the Mojave desert. The film title alludes
mainly to this being born from earth, but it can also be seen as a metaphor. In its metaphorical sense,
it could refer to the state of the planet Earth, to its being or to existence itself.Wikipedia
I went to the premiere of that movie ! It took place in a cinema in Hamburg and was brilliant.
