Synopsis

It’s easy, in 2025, to despair that any film might course-correct our everquickening descent towards climate disaster. And yet, climate change is a cause so vital to the entire planet that it’s possible to find inspiration to carry on. Director Oren Jacoby’s new film gives us reason to not only hope, but believe. We meet the climate activist Sharon Wilson, whose eerie thermal images of methane pollution in Texas unveil invisible destruction (and earn her death threats for sharing them).

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
