We Are Living In Exceptional Times
We all have the power to change. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years to change the way we live, avert the depletion of natural resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth's climate. The stakes are high for us and our children.
Combodorj ByambajargalEveryone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being. For this purpose, HOME needs to be free. A patron, the PPR Group, made this possible. EuropaCorp, the distributor, also pledged not to make any profit because Home is a non-profit film. HOME has been made for you : share it! And act for the planet. Yann Arthus-Bertrand. Watch the Film Trailer (Film Annonce) below. Watch the making of the music below.
Ibrahim MaaloufThere are the pictures. There's the text. And then there's the music, which accompanies, flies, reveals emotions, never becomes superfluous and never sentimentalizes the simple, poignant tale told by Yann Arthus-Bertrand's movie. Music by Composer, Armand Amar (France).
Armand Amar made several journeys to record with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and the Shanghai Percussion Ensemble. He wove into his score chants and instruments from several continents (Mongolia, Armenia, Iran, etc). The score tells one part of the story, the pictures another and the dialogue speaks yet another language, but it all must combine in a symphony, a harmony.
Special thanks to the 80,000 employees of the PPR Group for supporting the movie HOME. Websites: www.home-2009.com (Languages: FRA, ENG, ESP, DEU) / www.ppr.com
