Becoming Animal

synopsis

In this immersive, visually inventive film, directors Emma Davie (I Am Breathing) and Peter Mettler (The End of Time) journey into Wyoming's Grand Teton National Park with philosopher and cultural ecologist David Abram, searching for the liminal spaces where humans and animals meet. Challenging our human-centric view of the natural world, this subversive nature film uses cinema's sensory tools to explore humanity's relationship with the natural environment, proposing through expressionistic visuals and stimulating narration that a better balance can be achieved.
