Synopsis

Urth is a cinematic meditation on ambitious scientific experiments, artificial environments and visions of the future. A text by writer Mark von Schlegell gives voice to the final diary entries of a woman sealed in an unforgiving environment. The film questions what an enterprise such as Biosphere 2 can mean for humanity - today and in the near future - in its relationship to the natural world.
