What will the humans of 2071 think of our choices today?
In short: This documentary uses a unique temporal lens to examine our current environmental crisis. By projecting forward to 2071, it asks what our present actions will look like in the rearview mirror of the future.
The film explores the critical juncture humanity faces regarding its relationship with the planet. While nature has historically adapted to human demands, the documentary suggests we are reaching a breaking point where current decisions will dictate the trajectory of the next several decades.
Presented by the Natural History Museum, the piece serves as a speculative look back at the 2020s. It aims to provoke reflection on individual and societal responsibilities toward the natural world.
