The film is broken into four chapter exploring denial, impatience, confusion, and fatalism-all of which are obstacles to dealing with negative human impact on the environment. Using an abstract framework, we attempted to conjure these themes in mini-image stories told with minimal text, no dialogue, and a mix of motion graphics, non-cellular animation, and digital footage. Although the film is complete on its own, the diverse and moving score contributes to this emotional experience most powerfully when performed live. Written by
