Movie reviews of Living in the Future’s Past documentary:
“The film is absolutely gorgeous, featuring an amazing collection of high resolution footage working in tandem with Bridges’ rich narration. Not preachy, this didactic narrative does serve as a low key prayer for universal support for conservation.” – Daily Film Fix, Jonathan W. Hickman
“Living in the Future’s Past does not challenge viewers with an overwhelming task of changing the world, but in changing ourselves. It asks us to look within and examine whether we confuse what we need with what we desire and vice versa.” – Film Inquiry, Stephanie Archer
Review by Rachel Avalon
Living in the Future’s Past coalesces ecology, philosophy, and anthropology in a beautifully profound way. Jeff Bridges’ narrates, inviting the audience into a consciousness-raising journey, one which recognizes that humans are not separate observers of nature, but rather extensions of it. In other words, Earth is a dynamic super-organism that we continually influence and are influenced by. The question posed by the film is what kind of future do we truly want and what are we willing to do to cultivate it? As a holistic health coach and eco expert of many years, this theme of interconnectedness is what I teach and is why I have such a deep appreciation for this awe-inspiring, holistic documentary. I have watched dozens of environmental documentaries over the years and Living in the Future’s Past taps right into the essence of what true health and sustainability are all about, lovingly harmonizing with life.
