Director Marten Persiel on Wildlife Extinction Movie ‘Everything Will Change’
Tim Dams Weaving together fiction, archive and documentary, Marten Persiel’s “Everything Will Change” is a dystopian movie that addresses one of the most urgent issues of our time – the extinction of wildlife.Set in 2054, when wildlife has disappeared, it’s the story of three friends who go on a journey to discover what happened to their planet. The answer they discover lies in a decade – the 2020s – when a bright future was still possible, but a lack of action prevented the wholesale loss of once-abundant biodiversity.German director Persiel previously helmed “This Ain’t California,” which won best film in Berlinale’s Perspektive section in 2012.
