ISS-shot IMAX. 15 months of Earth footage. Climate change made visceral.
Astronauts aboard the ISS shot this IMAX documentary over 15 months using specially modified cameras, capturing Earth in a way that makes climate change viscerally real. You watch the Amazon rainforest shrink, glaciers calve in real time, and city lights spread like bioluminescence across continents at night. Narrated by Jennifer Lawrence, the film is less about space and more about the fragile planet below — the "overview effect" delivered directly to your nervous system. The nighttime aurora sequences alone are worth the runtime.
