Lonely and free scientists

Actually, I didn’t want to write a film review, the word count is over...

Here philosophers excavate soil, linguists grow vegetables, biologists are also rock fans...physicists, biologists, and geologists all have stories.

A few shots are more profound: 1. We protect animals and plants, but we never realize that every three to four minutes, a language will disappear from the world.

2. The electronic sound of seals. A group of people lie down to listen to the sound of seals. The magic of all things always keeps people curious.

3. Newcomers who are disoriented with plastic sleeves. The harsh living conditions in Antarctica can be seen.

4. The penguin who doesn't hesitate. This penguin is definitely the highlight of this film. By the way, there is the penguinist who is used to being lonely because he has not communicated with others for a long time. He said that some female penguins mate with male penguins for stones. Uh, I think people and animals have always been very similar.

5. These people are free, aren't they? People have only one hundred years at most. People have only one hundred years of life at most. Naturally, they will not change for hundreds or even thousands of tens of thousands of years. Are they alone?

6. Antarctica marked by humans. The footsteps of mankind itself is a kind of destruction, but this kind of destruction presents its beauty to the world. contradiction. American philosopher Aaron Watts once said that through our eyes, the universe can understand itself. Through our ears, the universe can hear its own harmonious sound. We are witnesses of the universe. Through us, the universe can perceive its own glory and splendor.

Encounters at the End of the World quotes

  • Werner Herzog: It occurred to me that in the time that we spent with him in the greenhouse possibly three or four languages have died. In our efforts to preserve endangered species we seem to overlook something equally important. To me, it's a sign of a deeply disturbed civilization, where tree-huggers and whale-huggers in their weirdness are acceptable, while no one embraces the last speakers of a language.

  • Werner Herzog: For me, the best description of hunger is the description of bread. A poet said that once I think. For me, the best description of freedom is what you have in front of you. You're travelling a lot.
