So, Terra, from '86? It's a curious documentary. No big-name director behind it, which adds to the mystique, I think. The pacing is a bit slow, but it has this raw, almost meditative quality. What strikes you is the atmosphere; they capture nature in a way that feels intimate, but also a little haunting. The visuals are quite striking, with practical effects that, while dated, have a certain charm. It dives into themes of environmentalism and human connection to the Earth, though it's not heavy-handed. The performances are understated, almost like you're watching real people rather than actors. Overall, it stands out for its simplicity and the way it invites you to reflect rather than just entertain.
