Reviews

It's an impressive documentary, the first 30 minutes in particular is great however i feel it is so loose and lacking in narrative that the last 30 minutes I wasn't that bothered...

"Aquarela" (2018 release from Denmark 89 min.) is a documentary about water, in its many forms and facets.

I completely dont like the artists/ regisseurs who is filming the private situation of the people without any allowness for this. In Europe/ America etc.

There are very good documentaries about nature, unfortunately this isn't one of them (eg Evolution 4K). The cinematography is lacking at best, essentially a compilation of amateur videographer clips spliced together and supported by music that does not flow well with the scenes.

I really didn't like this movie. It starts off with some kind of rescue operation, with some very impressive imagery, but the lack of context and information render this section a bit pointless and hard to invest emotionally.

This film tries to overwhelm with the sublimity of nature, but the sublime is ultimately an enfeebling, passive experience, and what the world doesn't need right now is another passive art film.AQUARELA is ostensibly about climate change and how that will influence humanity--but what that effect is and how we should respond to it essentially boils down to one giant shrug by the time the film ends.

My favourite film is "Koyaanisqatsi", which is a documentary about nature and urban life. It's probably not a well-known film, but that doesn't matter to me.

Greetings again from the darkness. This is not your father's Nature documentary.

Northern pacific i believe. Joss stone (acting student) ventures into bass country to fish away the foregone.
