"Metamorphosis" bears witness to a moment of profound change: the loss of one world, and the birth of another. ?Forest fires consume communities, species vanish, and entire ecosystems collapse. Economic growth, tied to increased speed of resource extraction, has created a machine with the capacity to destroy all life. But this crisis is also an opportunity for transformation. ?Through a tidal flow of stunning images, "Metamorphosis" carves a path from the present to the future. ?Woven together with stories of creativity and reinvention from artists, scientists, thinkers, and young children are creative, systemic solutions for our planet, and for our communities. ?"Metamorphosis" cinematically delves into how humanity is being transformed in new ways by the environmental crises we have created.
