This was definitely worth waiting since July 2010: Life In A Day.
For those who have missed all the commotion about this phenomenon, a quick summary:
this documentary has been shot by film makers all over the world, and crowdsourced online. Some 80,000 submissions and 4,500 hours of footage from 192 countries later, the documentary was born with. It’s sole purpose is to serve as a time capsule to show for future generations what it was like to be alive on the 24th of July, 2010. Produced by Ridley Scott and directed by Kevin Macdonald. I loved the global aspect of the documentary: experiencing one day in different parts of the world, capturing different sounds, colours and atmosphere’s. Surprisingly, some things are the same all around the world, such as some rituals or even the size of flies as one character in the film points out. Watch the whole film now Life In A Day,on You Tube , prepare to be amazed.
