Free Movie - Celebrate Earth Day with "Home"

WellBeingMD® is presenting the documentary, Home, to help celebrate Earth Day. Co-sponsored with the Cook County Forest Preserve. Seeds and Cook County Forest Preserve Literature will be available.


Come and experience the wonderment of our world in a way that will enthrall, captivate and inspire you! Award-winning aerial photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand and narrator Glenn Close take you on a spectacular voyage around the world in Home, a unique film with such breathtaking imagery, you'll want to enjoy it time and time again. With aerial footage from 54 countries, Home is a depiction of how the Earth's problems are all interlinked.

Home begins by exploring and clarifying the natural history of water, sunlight, and the role simple life-forms such as algae played (and still play) in making the planet hospitable to more evolved, living things. As the film moves along, it also has a way of rebooting one's assumptions about familiar phenomena, such as:

The Grand Canyon - Plant Life - Australia's Great Coral Reef
