HOME - Press conference March 9th 2009

In 200,000 years on Earth, humanity has upset the balance of the planet, established by nearly four billion years of evolution. The price to pay is high, but it's too late to be a pessimist: humanity has barely ten years to reverse the trend, become aware of the full extent of its spoliation of the Earth's riches and change its patterns of consumption.

By bringing us unique footage from over fifty countries, all seen from the air, by sharing with us his wonder and his concern, with this film Yann Arthus-Bertrand lays a foundation stone for the edifice that, together, we must rebuild.

On the occasion of WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY on June 5th 2009, HOME will be the FIRST movie to be released simultaneously on ALL MEDIA (Theatre, TV, DVD, and Internet) and across 5 CONTINENTS.

On June 5th, we all have a date with the planet!

no need to do anything .. the planet will self-regulate and fix the problem. unfortunately.. the problem is us, but well .. this planet has still a lot of time to produce maybe a wiser, more successful species. I hate humans anyway ...

(sarcasm off)

outstanding movie! this is our home, we can all play a part in saving the planet, sceptics on this movie just dont care and have given up on the planet and society tut tut

[sandyhickman7]

I would like to thank all the people involved with the making of this documentary. I think that it is absolutely outstanding. I have learned such a lot. Even if I don't understand the language in this particular piece I clicked onto the translate into English for the Home Doc. video. The footage in all was well worth it. I loved and enjoyed all the different country documentary's in the making of this.

Russia is so big that saying Russia would be too broad. They were describing the effects of Siberia in particular to the methane.

And I'd like you to know that this film was produced with the participation of government agencies in every nation that appears in the film + more.

You are absolutely crazy.

[endeavourthelimits]

Indeed it was a good statement from behalf of PPR and a frank one in the same time. I support further on these initiatives.

2) dans les autres conférences de presse,le groupe PPR a dit très clairement qu'ils savaient qu'ils allaient a l'encontre de critiques de cette manière. Au moins eux ont financé ce film et ont donné la possibilité aux réalisateurs de pouvoir le montrer un peu partout et gratuit la plupart du temps. on ne peut pas changer le monde en une minute, y aller pas à pas, pour une companie, je trouve que c'est bien plutôt que de faire des promises en l'air comme beaucoup.

1) le film a été compensé CO2.

[eddiequest4]

This movie, and its makers had such potential. But WHY THE FUCK DO THEY HAVE BOTTLED WATER AT THE TABLE?

[ichaichaparadise]

[mewira]
