Connected: A Declaration of Interdependence

A feature film, discussion and Internet project about the birds, the bees, Botox, bacteria, oil, plastic, population, human rights, mercury, the Internet, global trade, crime, love, happiness, genetics, beauty, survival, and what happens when everything affects everything.

Mixing powerful visuals, humor, and serious messages, CONNECTED takes audiences on a stream-of-consciousness ride through the interconnectedness of humankind, nature, progress and morality at the dawn of the 21st Century. This film, discussion and Internet project explores the surprising links between biology, technology, and culture, illuminating the complex relationships between our actions and the world.

Breaking from traditional documentary form, CONNECTED is part documentary, part narrative, and part something completely different. It employs a symbolic collage of images, animation, and graphics in different contexts, making viewers laugh, think, and then rethink their preconceptions of progress, independence, and the consequences of their actions in an interdependent world.
