Salt of the Earth movie posterWednesday 30 November: Salt of the Earth 

(Directed by Wim Wenders and Juliano Ribeiro Salgad, 2014. 1 hr 50 min, PG-13)

For more than 40 years, the photographer Sebastião Salgado travelled through the continents, in the footsteps of an ever changing humanity. He witnessed major events in our recent history: international conflicts, starvations and exodus. He is now embarking on the discovery of pristine territories, of the wild fauna and flora, of grandiose landscapes as part of a huge photographic project which is a tribute to the planet's beauty. Sebastião's Salgado's life and work are revealed to us by his son, Juliano, who went with him during his last travels, and by Wim Wenders, a photographer himself.

You can view the official trailer for the film here.
