The greenhouse gas emissions of our industrial society will most likely destroy the ancient culture of the Marshall Islands.


This is not only a local event, but also a universal warning to all people on Earth.


Using the fate of the Marshall Islands as an example, One Word's filmmakers were able to demonstrate the impact of the climate crisis and rising sea levels.


It was particularly vital for Viviana and Mark Uriona not to go to the Marshall Islands (as filmmakers from the first world) and make a film about those affected. They followed a participatory approach.


They got to know the people on site, developed the film project together and therefore enabled a kind of empowerment.


This unique approach to mutual exploration has resulted in an exciting, vivid and highly charged documentary that captures one of the most important topics of our time.
