Yours faithfully, …………Eric Loizeau……………… Page 29 Story Overview Pioneers of the 21st Century A video documentary 15 minutes Story Overview Nowadays, it is possible to feel the distress among the young generation concerning the looming perspectives brought by the climate changes. This distress has a name, Solastalgia, a concept thought by the philosopher Glenn Albrecht. However, solutions to fight climate changes and environmental disruptions still do exist. The first solution in this battle is to change our mindset, our understanding of Nature. The unlimited exploitation of limited natural resources is not sustainable. We have to rediscover our relationship to Nature. In this context, the pioneers of the 21st century will not be the ones who will push the limits of the impossible. A pioneer in the 21st century is someone able to think a future more respectful of the environment where improving quality of human life is synonymous with respect of Nature. Explorers have a lot to say about our relationship to Nature through their own experiences. Explorers of the oceans or explorers of the deserts and mountains are in contact with wildlife. Through their testimonies, they could teach us lessons of wisdom. In order to achieve the ecological transition, the moment has come to think our relationship to time, to digital tools and to the others human beings. Protecting the environment is not only a matter of scientific innovation but an everyday philosophy in which Nature means home. These explorers tell us the magnificence beauty of our common home. Character Based Narrative The documentary will be framed by the testimonies of these explorers. Firstly, they will tell the stories of their expeditions. They will explain their relationship to wildlife. It will be a sequence of specific anecdotes concerning their explorations. The second main sequence of the documentary is a discussion about the future of our planet. We will try to understand the limits of our models of society in order to bring solutions based on mindset changes. It is in this respect that my documentary is political. There will be sit interviews with a common frame for all of the participants. The frame will focus on their eyes. It will be a close frame. The interviews will be done in their houses in France. There will be no voice over. Titles will explain the profile of each participants. Specific sounds of their expeditions could introduce their testimonies. For example, sounds of sperm whales could introduce the testimony of Francois Sarano. I will not be a character of the documentary. It doesn't appear necessary to the story. Pictures of their expeditions will be integrated to the documentary in order to illustrate their testimonies. We will see these characters looking at these pictures. These pictures could frame the content of their testimonies dedicated to their expeditions. Participant Profiles François Sarano Francois was born in 1954 in Valence. He is a doctor in Oceanography. Between 1985 and 1997, he worked with the captain Cousteau for the expeditions led by the boat Calypso. He participated to more than 20 oceanographic expeditions as diver, scientific advisor and chief of mission. In 2000, he created the organization, “Longitude 181” dedicated to the protection of the sea resources. In 2004, he worked with the directors, Jacques Perrin and Jacques Cluzaud, on the film project, Oceans. He is also a scientific advisor of the boat, Sea Orbiter, created by the naval architect Jacques Rougerie. Francois Sarano will tell us his unique relationship to sperm whale and will expose the issues concerning the exploitation of marine resources. Jozée Sarrazin Jozée has a doctorate in environmental sciences from the University of Québec Montréal. In September 2002, she became a researcher for the French institute of the seas, IFREMER. She is specialized in the study of extreme marine environments. Jozée wants to share her passion for the Ocean. She does scientific vulgarization of her expeditions through series of podcast and child books. Jozée Sarrazin will describe wildlife in extreme marine environments and her mindset during her expeditions. Malek Boukerchi Malek is an anthropologist and a social philosopher. In 2006, he created the society Arsynoe, dedicated to management consulting. He practices ultra-long distances marathons. In 2013, he ran 143 kilometers in Antarctica. In 2015, he wrote a book about this expedition named, once upon a time in Antarctica. Malek Boukerchi will share his thoughts concerning the widening gap between wildlife and our connected societies. Alain Thebault Alain was born in 1962 in Dijon. He is a sailor and a businessman. He worked with the French sailor, Eric Tabarly, on the Hydropter project. The Hydropter is a multihull boat equipped with hydrofoils. In 2005, the Hydropter accomplished a speed record of 50 knots. In 2015, Alain Thebault launched with her daughters the project Sea Bubbles. This project has for aim to commercialize electric boats moving on hydrofoils. The Sea bubbles boats are seen as new means of transport in the rivers of the cities. Alain Thebault is an example of willingness which is required to fight climate changes. Style and Approach Human by Yann-Arthus Bertrand This documentary is structured by testimonies of people all around the world. The frame is the same for each participants. The background décor behind them is also common. These techniques enhance the strength of the testimonies because the attention of the audience is directly focused on the content and not the environment of the interview. On ne marche quúne fois sur la lune by Bertrand Delapierre and Christophe Raylat This documentary tells the story of three alpinists, Ueli Steck, Yannick Graziani and Stéphane Benoist who climbed the South face of the Annapurna in an Alpine Style. The testimonies are strong and it is possible to see them climbing when they speak, even if they were not able to bring back pictures of their expeditions due to extreme conditions in the Himalayas. Therefore, this aspect is interesting for my documentary because I will not be able to have sequences of my explorers in action. Via Alpina by Mathieu Chambaud This documentary focuses on hikers crossing the Alps and asks the following question, why do hikers go in the mountains hiking? This documentary is inspiring for his slow pace well balanced between sit interviews in nature and beautiful sceneries. In this documentary, specific rooms are allocated to reflect the testimonies. Between the lines by Yucca Films In this short documentary, Vivian Bruchez explains his passion for free ride skiing. The documentary is structured by pictures of mountains Vivian has climbed and skied. Therefore, we can see Vivian looking at these pictures in his house and then explaining stories of specific ski lines in Chamonix. Pictures are used as introductions which is something I would like to reproduce in my documentary.
