About This Movie

Breakpoint: A Counter History of Progress is quite a thought-provoking documentary that dives deep into the Anthropocene era. Directed by Jean-Robert Viallet, it feels almost like a reflective essay on our past two centuries. The pacing is methodical, allowing the viewer to ponder the themes of human progress intertwined with conflict and exploitation. It’s not your typical doc, though; it challenges you to think critically about how the ambitions of a few have led to the detriment of many. The visuals are stark, presenting a raw look at the consequences of our actions. It’s a compelling take on history that lingers with you long after the credits roll.
