BROOKLYN STREET ART LOVES YOU MORE EVERY DAY
We were saddened to find out that those undulating, bubbling, rolling dress trains behind the off-the-shoulder Olympias at the edge of the world were not spontaneous.
Aside from that, this documentary about humans polluting the natural world with their inane posing and photo-directing to show the folks back home—or complete strangers on TikTok—is eye-opening for its subjects’ open acceptance of how it all happens.
By securing her camera on a stick in the soil and letting it capture the herds, Dutch filmmaker Yasmin van Dorp regales us with the wonders of the world, while we little armies of ants jockey for position in front of one another’s phones.
“Here is me by myself, experiencing transcendence in nature.” Twenty feet away, out of frame, another person is doing the same.
Thankfully, the film is not narrated, and its perspective is not always clear. Undoubtedly, the stunning views are inspiring.
