The 11th Hour is a 2007 feature film documentary created, produced and narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio on the state of the natural environment. With the contributions of over fifty of the world’s most prominent thinkers and activists, including reformer Mikhail Gorbachev, physicist Stephen Hawking, and Earth Policy Institute founder and president Lester Brown, the film documents the grave problems facing the planet’s life systems. Global warming, deforestation, mass species extinction, and depletion of the oceans’ habitats are all addressed. The film’s premise is that the future of humanity is in jeopardy.
The movie is being released in a number of American and Canadian cities this week and next week. Find show times at this link.
Awesome. I will definitely check this out!
Julia and I watched some of the episodes of Strange Days on Planet Earth narrated by Edward Norton. It really blew our mind!
(Though we found the production a little too flashy.)
I’m so envious because I haven’t seen “strange Days on Planet Earth”. Too much to do and little time to relax is what the tourist season holds for us. However, autumn is on the way and during those wet winter nights we will have time for some catching up.
