Скачать или смотреть EDEN – How We Destroyed Our Own Planet | Cinematic Short Film

EDEN is a cinematic visual essay about how humans slowly destroy the only home we have.

A giant foot pressing into a continent.
A hand crushing a mountain peak.
Rusty rakes scraping green fields into barren dirt.
Plastic cups falling onto a perfect beach.
A cigarette butt igniting an entire forest.
Meat grinders hanging over crowded farms.
Plastic bags covering the sunset.
An oil barrel turning the ocean black.
A finger launching the final explosion.

All of these scenes are created as macro and miniature effects to show one simple idea:
our small, everyday actions, multiplied by billions of people, become a global catastrophe.

🎬 What this film is about:
• the destructive impact of humans on nature
• plastic, oil, factory farming, wildfires, urban sprawl
• visual metaphors: giant human gestures vs a fragile planet
• the contrast between Earth’s beauty and our habits

💬 After watching, you might ask yourself:
• How much damage is hidden inside my daily habits?
• How “normal” have plastic, overconsumption and pollution become for me?
• What is one small thing I can actually change?

🌍 We only get one Earth.
The real question is not when it all ends —
the real question is how long we’ll pretend not to see it.
