With Carbon in the news every day, you might think you know everything about her. But you’d be wrong. This unorthodox and creatively ambitious documentary connects the dots for us, offering a grand overview. Just how do climate change, astrophysics, the birth of stars, our DNA, materials science, and history (to name just a few!) interrelate? World-renowned experts such as astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and others translate this complex story with striking clarity and infectious enthusiasm. Actor Sarah Snook (Succession) lends a cheeky, powerful voice to Carbon. She spins us on an epic saga of her violent birth and how she sparked the earliest life. Paradoxically, the element at the core of life is now claimed as the greatest threat to our survival. But is carbon really the enemy? Not according to a new generation of Carbon-capture scientists, forest guardians and renewables entrepreneurs. They are working hard to make peace with her, giving her places to hide. This story of life’s core element promises to transform how we think of Carbon, from maligned destroyer to powerful enabler.
