The Big Ask

Directed by

Six thousand persons on the beach at Ostend, Belgium, and music by Hooverphonic in a 5-minute clip that calls attention to the need for solving the problem of global warming. The film is an urgent appeal to politicians to avert disaster, because in 10 years humanity could be wiped out by the consequences global warming will bring. The solution? Reduce the amount of emissions released into the atmosphere which trigger warming and climatic change. The message is simple: do something before it's too late.
