Today I watched a poignant movie which deeply
fascinated me. Any guesses which one it could be?
It wasn't any Bollywood melodrama piece or a
Hollywood tale of romance. It was about us, Humans!
‘Human’ is an authentic movie, directed by an
artist and filmmaker, Yann Arthus Bertrand; led by two nonprofit organizations:
Bettencourt Schueller and Good Planet Foundation. Based on unique thoughts,
this movie delicately portrays the in-numerous human lives and emotions: their
tears, laughter and fears, etc… across the globe with a quest for the answer to
an imperceptible question ‘what makes us human?’
For three years, he traveled to around sixty
countries, meeting new people, comprehending their hopes and struggles and
capturing those precious moments, making the whole process worthwhile.
The movie comprises of interviews of some eminent
persons like Cameron Diaz who talks about her incredible career and shares her
learning experiences since childhood. She also discloses her hardest times when
she lost her father. Other than her, there were others like Jose Mujica, the
former president of Uruguay who discusses about his struggles to bring a transformation
in the society towards upliftment. He talks about his setbacks and the enduring
fortitude to still strive for it. He meticulously describes that the true
essence of happiness lies within and why in this consumer society, sobriety is
essential.
While it was emotional to watch some fearless souls
like Francine Christopher share her experience of the concentration camps,
during the Hitler reign (It was deeply moving to see that old lady speak about
their heart rending moments as they struggled to survive each day), there were
others who expressed the true value of love and joy which resides in the
simplest pleasures.
The pertinent questions regarding sorrow,
happiness, frustration, a human undergoes everyday and their indubitable,
gripping answers, portrayed in unforgettable ways will leave your soul
engrossed to the core.
There were uncountable touching tales which
couldn't be sufficed or restrained in a piece of paper but can only be
understood and sensed through the eyes.
