Jennifer Baichwal, Edward Burtynsky, and Nick de Pencier’s Anthropocene trilogy—comprised of Manufactured Landscapes, Watermark, and ANTHROPOCENE: The Human Epoch—are an essential testament to how human beings have radically, rapidly, and dangerously reshaped the face of the natural world. Timed to the opening of The Great Acceleration, a retrospective of Burtynsky’s photography work at the International Center of Photography which sees him exploring similar concerns via the still image, we welcome the trio of Canadian filmmakers to Metrograph to screen and discuss these vital, disturbing nonfiction documents.
