Pierre Oscar Lévy

The Cold War's wildest dreams of climate control have made a spectacular comeback: from the USA to China, 'geo-engineers' promise to make climate change the way we want. And they have found powerful supporters among lobbyists and entrepreneurs. This film is an investigation into the world-wide boom in geo-engineering. How did a pseudo-science with a controversial past become a planet-wide research subject?

A pastiche of clips from first attempts at film by future masters of the documentary such as Joris Ivens, Frederick Wiseman, Jean Rouch, Nagisa Oshima, and the less well known Olga Vertova.

This analysis is based on an ideological commentary on Renoir's film. From the beginning, the reading, unilateral, gives keys to interpret the characters: "These are shadows returning to the castle". Renoir "paints the lie of a society that no longer believes in its own values".
