Racconti di luce

Stunning images, great script and brilliant idea to educate people. Humans, this is not only about photography, this is real and this is NOW. The guy is just trying to help us to make a change, not only to rate his video on IMDb. It's more than a documentary, it's more than staying home and watch Netflix, it should be an eye opener for all of us that own a watching device. I told myself from begining of 2019, if I don't change anything, all these will be done for nothing. Respect!

The short 30 minute episodes have been shot all over the world featuring different travel photographers who explain why they enjoy their profession so much. Great for inspiration, with lots of cultures and natural places covered. After watching the full first series I went out to complete some landscape and documentary photography myself!

The concept itself sounds first pretty self indulging, but right after the first five minutes the sheer perfectness of the cinematography itself takes hold of you and you only beg for more!

The crisp, blade-sharp pictures, the always spot-on framing, perfect compisitions make this a visual orgasm.

And after the first episode I can not ever think of any documentary can ever again get away for not using drones for aerial footage. Drone birds-eye view is not just a gimmick, it is skillfully executed and adds great value to the spectacle.

I do NOT say it is the best of documentaries, but it IS the most visually spectacular yet.

Also, some of the photographers are bit pretentious and full of themselves but anyone is free to mute and put on some cinemix or any music of their liking, kick back and swim in the nicest piece of motion picture of this year.

This show with short episode and with a very beautiful pictures and a message that just touch your soul!! With background music tht just keep me going like magic.. watch it.

There's a small montage of photos of Orlando Bloom "UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador", hanging out with various press-worthy impoverished brown and black people. But the people are either obscured by Orlando's head or out of focus.

He spends the rest of his screen time tip-toeing around trash, trying to not get his boots muddy, complaining about the smell in front of the people that have to live there and looking utterly revolted at everyone and everything, all the time.

This episode/unicef advert, doesn't attempt to discuss the political/economic reasons behind why these people are so neglected or what can be done to raise them out of poverty and neither does Bloom (but I'm assuming it's donate to unicef).
