We have been marked by record floods in Bosnia, a polar storm in the USA, unprecedented forest fires in Australia, a deadly typhoon in Madagascar and the awakening of a volcano that has been dormant for 200 years in Iceland.
We cannot predict what will hit the Earth tomorrow, but we are certain: each year brings its share of natural disasters that we try often in vain to anticipate, understand, and prevent.
The images in this film show these apocalyptic moments as they take place, on the ground, in the heart of the action. 4K cameras, computergenerated images, and interviews with scientists allow authentic immersion, in sounds and images, in the midst of disasters.
