In this documentary signed by Fisher Stevens, the actor and producer who won this year an Oscar for his role in ‘The Revenant’ carries the audience through the world and brings them to experts and politicians in order to expose the stakes of the problem and ways to solve it.

Film production was performed in an ‘incredible journey of three years, which led me, along with director Fisher Stevens, to the four corners to gather evidence on the devastating impact of climate change and to question the capacity of mankind resolve what the problem might be the most devastating ever faced,’ said the star.

Leonardo DiCaprio congratulated that nearly 200 countries concluded in December 2015 an agreement for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions which ‘will not improve only the environment but also will lead us to a more sustainable 21st century.’
