What can one person do? What can a group of people do? What do we want to leave behind? We visit 13 projects in 13 different places where committed groups work for a vibrant future. A personal and poetic depiction of what it means to be fully human in the age of the Anthropocene.

On Compassion
Would I have done things differently if I were in your shoes? A film about the importance of compassion, inspired from an essay by Charles Eisenstein.
Crossing Borders
A documentary about musicians Sousou & Maher Cissoko, filmed on location in Senegal. A proper love story AND the first film of the Campfire Stories library to actually feature a campfire!
A Tale from the Woods
Is it really “green” and “environmentally smart” to use clearcutting methods in forestry? Or is it an outdated, inefficient and heavily carbon-emitting practice that does not belong in a world already struggling with forest fires and a climate crisis?
One Poem to Catch it All
A film about poet and carpenter Ben Bushill. An attempt to speak to us all, no matter our background, of the wondrous strangeness and simplicity of being a human on planet Earth.

My meeting with Charles Eisenstein, whose book “The Ascent of Humanity” helped me figure out what was “off” in this world, and how it could be instead.

On Separation
Could there be a common root to all of the crises facing the web of life on planet earth?
Vaccine: a conversation
What I learned during the making of this film it is this: The danger lies not in the risk of being misled into trusting the wrong camp. The risk lies in believing that such a complex matter should have an answer as simple as yes or no.
On Fear
A bird falls dead at my feet and sends my thoughts spinning. An image of me on my own death bed. What will I be thinking about in my waning moments?
