Iain Stewart tells the epic story of how the planet has shaped our history. With
spectacular images, surprising stories and a compelling narrative, the series discovers the central role played in human history by four different planetary forces.
Episode 1: Water
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. This time he explores our complex relationship with water. Visiting spectacular locations in Iceland, the Middle East and India, Iain shows how control over water has been central to human existence. He takes a precarious flight in a motorised paraglider to experience the cycle of freshwater that we depend on, discovers how villagers in the foothills of the Himalayas have built a living bridge to cope with the monsoon, and visits Egypt to reveal the secret of the pharaohs' success. Throughout history, success has depended on our ability to adapt to and control constantly shifting sources of water.
Episode 2: Deep Earth
Iain Stewart tells the epic story of how the planet has shaped our history. With spectacular images, surprising stories and a compelling narrative, the series discovers the central role played in human history by four different planetary forces. In this first episode, Iain explores the relationship between the deep Earth and the development of human civilisation. He visits an extraordinary crystal cave in Mexico, drops down a hole in the Iranian desert and crawls through seven-thousand-year-old tunnels in Israel. His exploration reveals that throughout history, our ancestors were strangely drawn to fault lines, areas which connect the surface with the deep interior of the planet. These fault lines gave access to important resources, but also brought with them great danger.
Episode 3: Wind
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. Iain sets sail on one of the fastest racing boats ever built to explore the story of our turbulent relationship with the wind. Travelling to iconic locations including the Sahara desert, the coast of West Africa and the South Pacific, Iain discovers how people have exploited the power of the wind for thousands of years. The wind is a force which at first sight appears chaotic. But the patterns that lie within the atmosphere have shaped the destiny of continents, and lie at the heart of some of the greatest turning points in human history.
Episode 4: Fire
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. Iain explores man's relationship with fire. He begins by embarking on an extraordinary encounter with this terrifying force of nature - a walk right through the heart of a raging fire. Fire has long been our main source of energy and Iain shows how this meant that the planet played a crucial role in Britain's industrial revolution, whilst holding China's development back. Along the way he dives in a mysterious lake in Oregon, climbs a glacier of salt, crawls through an extraordinary cave in Iran and takes a therapeutic bath in crude oil.
Episode 5: Human Planet
Series in which Professor Iain Stewart looks at how four geological forces have shaped human history. He explores the most recently established force, humans. It's easy to think of the human impact on the planet as a negative one, but as Iain discovers, this isn't always the case. It is clear that humans have unprecedented control over many of the planet's geological cycles; the question is, how will the human race use this power?
8.5/10 配乐差了点意思，片里的人也都太白了，可能因为POC的境况要更差一些吧。总体而言还是觉得挺真实的，可以relate。我常一个人去山里，一个人旅行，一个人睡在车上，担心半夜被人敲醒。我经济上当然比Fern更宽裕些，但是孤独感是相通的。我还记得一月的一个夜晚，我去海边散步，突然就下起了暴雨。我站在大岛东边的悬崖上，惊涛拍岸，风呼啸而过，雨点打在身上，我一时吓得几乎不敢动弹，但仍不愿意离开，也说不出是觉得高兴还是难过。看到有友邻说这个故事太单薄空洞，我也不知道是不是，但我感觉我的生活好像就是挺单薄空洞的，如果拍出来，大概会很无聊，会有许多长长的空镜头。我妈曾经说过我走路很慢，看着都不知道是来还是去，想到这里，我觉得一阵难过。我的确不知道。我可能都做不了nomad，我不知道可以去哪里。
出走半生，一次次上路，逃离熟悉的一切人与物，无非是想要逃向寒荒，放逐心里那个始终滋生蔓延的伤口。失去你，家园湮废，幸福也变得可有可无。张开右手，望向星空，来自千万年前宇宙爆炸的微尘，如今落入了你的手中。而你在哪儿呢，在我已经离开的苍茫旷野中吗？还是在我即将抵达的渊崖巨浪中？无尽轮回里，你我的生命又是什么呢。继续上路吧，为了再一次相遇。如果这一生不能，那就到下一世里久别重逢。
@ L'Epée de bois 刚好一个多月没去电影院了 电影院观感加一分
后崩盘时代，零工经济，被迫游牧。也与美国六十年代的嬉皮士文化进行对话，但与他们不同的是，那些中产阶级的孩子们是在模仿贫穷，而本片里的关键是“had to”，不得不离开，不得不上路。这不是“在路上”，而是迫于生计，可与《对不起，我们错过了你》结尾的卡车上路对话。从冬至冬，一年时间，周而复始，重回亚马逊打工，女主角拒绝了一切外力的帮助，她是“无法停下脚步的人”，导演依然进行了有限度的审美诗化。非职业演员表演出色。
人生最终是一场孤独的旅行，每个人只能伴一程。看了这片子，结合我自己最近发生的一些事，更能理解Home和Family的意义。珍惜身边人，珍惜结伴的每一程。
科恩嫂的凸嘴有一种傲气和韧劲，搭配本片茫茫无际的荒野，让人觉得这个故事是挺立的，不会倒下的。
“我今年75岁了，我觉得我这一辈子过得挺不错了。我在到处划皮艇的时候见过很多美好的事物，在爱达荷的河边，我见过一家子的麋鹿，在科罗拉多的湖上，一只大大的白色鹈鹕落在我的皮艇前方，在划过一个弯角后，那里有一块悬崖，我看到上百只燕子停在悬崖上，还有燕子在空中飞舞，而且有了河水的倒映，看起来就像是我也飞起来了，而燕子就在我的四周飞舞，还有雏燕刚刚孵出壳，小小的蛋壳从悬崖落到水面，在水面上漂浮着，那些白白的蛋壳，简直太美妙了。我觉得我经历得够多了，我的人生已经完整了，如果我在那一刻死去的话，对我来说，完全没有问题。我也不知道，也许等我死了之后，我的朋友们会围坐在篝火边，将石块投入火中来纪念我。”

There is no final goodbye. I will see you down the road.
配乐好听，但略显泛滥，不过整体来说很成熟了，懂得克制，收放自如，一些事点到为止就可以，没有过多着墨。予人以尊严，予生命以尊重，在泥潭里寻觅转瞬即逝的诗意，十分动人了。
看似“无依”，却紧紧“依靠”着这片土地、记忆、Bo，“依靠”得太紧以至于无法拥抱更多的爱，年复一年，选择孤独却不曾孤独。
虽然周围人都抱以不屑，但我认为是不错的。摒弃戏剧性，大量呈现状态，国外是认可这种路线的，然而国内只认戏剧性，总在找冲突找人物关系找动作，对电影的理解未免有点太呆板狭隘了。
自己把日子过好就完事了，没有必要去judge别人的生活方式。总觉得现在的一众“高新产业园”就是数字时代的恩派尔/东北工业区，成于需求也死于需求。Ps.workhorse还是可以做选择的，而韭菜只能被割……选词精准
非常喜欢，色调和镜头都太美了。有一种深沉的悲伤。
和我高中时特别喜欢的那部《荒野生存》就像是A面B面，区别就在于你有没有选择。第一次感觉我的“生活就是一部公路片”这个人生哲理透出无限的苍凉。
好美好孤独的电影。Fern老公死后，她活在了过去。就算Dave几次向她抛出了“安稳”生活的橄榄枝她也几经挣扎后最终无法接受。最美的是她在夕阳下念她婚礼致辞的十四行诗—shall I compare thee to the summer’s day...最后也很美“dedicated to the ones who had to depart, see you down the road”。非常感同身受和看完陷进去的电影（可能跟我最近心境有关）
不同寻常的公路片。有时候很多事情就是没办法放下，不是所有过往都可以释怀的，但这没关系，当你不得不上路的时候，一切就路上见吧。
有点难受又有点舒服 很多孤独 也很多美 比如聚在荒地看星星 给树下青年念莎士比亚的诗
游牧心灵对家是如何认识的，它仅仅需要占据心灵的空间吗？穿梭，零工，告别。几段配乐非常精致，好听，感动，但也消解了一些纪录片式的力量。剧情片中的纪录片语言，也是一定程度的突破。
她灿若银河，她泯然人海，新年的一束烟花，山林的寂静回声，谁此时孤独便永远孤独，谁此时于路上，便永远于路上。
