Abstract
Abstract Recent discussions about renaming the current geological epoch the Anthropocene provide a constructive lens to consider the work of contemporary Nordic documentary filmmakers (including Stefan Jarl, Michael Madsen and Mikael Kristersson) who are each exploring an evolving understanding of the ways that humans are simultaneously part of and separate from nature. The films considered here investigate how deeply embedded humans are in natural systems by manipulating anthropocentric perspectives as well as geographical and temporal sense of scale. The effects of these cinematic experiments help to form a renewed understanding of relatedness about how the future of humanity and the ecological fate of the planet are intertwined.
