The film revolves around James Balog, who has been a photographer for National Geographic. He sets up cameras in various places, Greenland, Iceland, Alaska, Montana to take time-lapse photos of glaciers in order to provide visual evidence of global warming and its effect on these glaciers. There was one powerful scene showing a "Manhattan-sized" piece of the Ilulissat Glacier in Iceland "calving" and crashing into the ocean. That scene shook me the most, to imagine that much of the glacier being lost in such a short amount of time and the amount of water that would add to the oceans. The film also had beautiful cinematography that really portrayed the beauty of our planet.
Go out and support the movie.
