Director's Notes
«The Planet is an attempt to find answers about the truths and untruths of the alarming global changes that many claim are already in motion. It is the most extensive documentary project ever produced in Scandinavia. The film crews worked for more than 2 years and visited over 25 countries around the world. (...) The Planet is about much more than climate change. It's about the Earth as a whole – it's about the overall global changes we are experiencing right now».
