Iain Stewart tells the epic story of how the planet has shaped our history. With
spectacular images, surprising stories and a compelling narrative, the series discovers the central role played in human history by four different planetary forces.
Episode 1: Water
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. This time he explores our complex relationship with water. Visiting spectacular locations in Iceland, the Middle East and India, Iain shows how control over water has been central to human existence. He takes a precarious flight in a motorised paraglider to experience the cycle of freshwater that we depend on, discovers how villagers in the foothills of the Himalayas have built a living bridge to cope with the monsoon, and visits Egypt to reveal the secret of the pharaohs' success. Throughout history, success has depended on our ability to adapt to and control constantly shifting sources of water.
Episode 2: Deep Earth
Iain Stewart tells the epic story of how the planet has shaped our history. With spectacular images, surprising stories and a compelling narrative, the series discovers the central role played in human history by four different planetary forces. In this first episode, Iain explores the relationship between the deep Earth and the development of human civilisation. He visits an extraordinary crystal cave in Mexico, drops down a hole in the Iranian desert and crawls through seven-thousand-year-old tunnels in Israel. His exploration reveals that throughout history, our ancestors were strangely drawn to fault lines, areas which connect the surface with the deep interior of the planet. These fault lines gave access to important resources, but also brought with them great danger.
Episode 3: Wind
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. Iain sets sail on one of the fastest racing boats ever built to explore the story of our turbulent relationship with the wind. Travelling to iconic locations including the Sahara desert, the coast of West Africa and the South Pacific, Iain discovers how people have exploited the power of the wind for thousands of years. The wind is a force which at first sight appears chaotic. But the patterns that lie within the atmosphere have shaped the destiny of continents, and lie at the heart of some of the greatest turning points in human history.
Episode 4: Fire
Professor Iain Stewart continues his epic exploration of how the planet has shaped human history. Iain explores man's relationship with fire. He begins by embarking on an extraordinary encounter with this terrifying force of nature - a walk right through the heart of a raging fire. Fire has long been our main source of energy and Iain shows how this meant that the planet played a crucial role in Britain's industrial revolution, whilst holding China's development back. Along the way he dives in a mysterious lake in Oregon, climbs a glacier of salt, crawls through an extraordinary cave in Iran and takes a therapeutic bath in crude oil.
Episode 5: Human Planet
Series in which Professor Iain Stewart looks at how four geological forces have shaped human history. He explores the most recently established force, humans. It's easy to think of the human impact on the planet as a negative one, but as Iain discovers, this isn't always the case. It is clear that humans have unprecedented control over many of the planet's geological cycles; the question is, how will the human race use this power?
落进马桶的扑通声 无法及不能剪断
近年来堕胎题材的电影并不少见，关键是看从哪个角度切入，《正发生》的文本其实比较普通，一个前途无量的新兴女性正在被意外怀孕和严格的法律政策打乱自己的人生计划，所以导演对文本的扩充和放大就显得尤为重要，1.37:1画幅、长焦距浅景深的手持跟拍的摄影方式增强了影像的纪实感，更好的利用空间景别传递情绪也更容易捕捉角色表情，三场堕胎戏即使没有正面镜头，疼痛感的递增也依旧能感受的到。整体上虽然有些匠气，但对于绝大多数普通观众，这是一个1+1＞2的文字影像的组合。
流产的两场戏，几乎可以说看得人心惊肉跳，并不是有多血腥，而是整个电影带来的压迫感和无奈感都很强烈，直言无数女性面临的问题和心声，或许会选择成为母亲，但不能以整个人生为代价，被男医生婉拒甚至欺骗，最后还是需要了解她状况的女性友人推荐女医生。
鲜血淋漓的直白，六十年前的法国故事却马上要对中国当下的现实有了参照意义，这可太讽刺了！ #女性处境#
谁关心过处女受孕的圣母玛利亚有没有不诞下耶稣的权利
can never be more relevant than now 导演真一个幸运儿 议题把握能力或者说时机真的精确
[emucinema] 会自然联想到女主小时候演的《我的小公主》，像是延续的女性故事。从12周次到日期，从倒计时回到正常的生活，“自然流产”竟然是一种幸运。法国电影里的蓝色是人生的波澜。
人物反复踟蹰思忖的状态是真实，镜头直接对准受难的身体之视角也是真实。
SFFILM 4/22 有两个场景都都是透过指缝看的，吓得缩成一团。配乐极少，能深切感受到女主的烦躁不安和恐惧。女主角眼神坚定执拗，很贴合角色。可以看到当陷入这样的困境时，某些情况下很可能没有任何人能帮助你，甚至会离你而去；而有些愿意提供帮助的男性会想着先从你身上获得些只有女人能给的好处（可以联系最近某地发生的用食物胁迫女性的事情）堕胎是一个女人最基本的权利，男人不该来制订关于女人身体的法律，感谢影节在德州甚至全球都出现倒退的时候选了这部电影。映后Q&A里有观众提问法国在堕胎问题上的现状，导演说明天就能知道大选结果了，法国也在关键的时刻，也许不小心又会退回过去，没人能预测会发生什么。
C / 选择身体化与生动化来舍弃历史感未必是好的选择，尤其是同题材作品不少的当下。即便没有那些“切肤之痛”，「女人韵事」也可以摄人心魄。
31/2022
总结：氛围沉浸版的全景式《女人韵事》前半段。背景找的角度不错，有很强的现实意义，围绕法国关于堕胎的特殊时期禁令，通过女主对外界表露堕胎想法时不同群体的“异口同声”般的负面反馈，营造了一种无形的恐怖氛围——彼时女性对自身人格权尚且没有完整的掌控力。但氛围感的持续营造带来的不良效果是，后半段尤其结尾算是崩了，没有很大的矛盾冲突让整个电影的主题如那根毛衣针一样深深扎到观众心里，反而安排了一个“判定流产”这一外力拯救+女主心满意足+最后端出鸡汤这么个平庸的结局，让整个片的逼格一下子掉下去了。（额外夸一夸这个译名，影片背景在20世纪60年代的法国，但其实故事又何尝不在21世纪的今天每天正在发生呢）
没有想到回忆录改编尽然可以拍的像青春thriller
生育是无法控制的未来，是“只攻击女人的绝症，无差别的把她们都变成了家庭主妇。”开了保胎药的以及漠不关心的男医生，比起女朋友和胎儿更在乎朋友看法的男人，只有自己的生理疼痛这么真实。什么时候人类可以进化成女性愿意受孕才能受孕？女人想要性交才能性交？！
四月三周两天的法国版本，给片子本身的意义多半个星，成为母亲之前请先成为自己
安妮是我见过最爱学习的女主了，咱就说读书有用，起码能开智
背景在1968年之前但事实上很少能感受到时间壁，着重表现女性身份的感受反应处境所思所想与当代观众仍有共时性的共鸣，这种设计表现了女性处境相较于社会变化的静止状态。我觉得这也是电影名的由来。
有些场景不必如此暴露和做漫长展示，导演的意图也许是使观众感觉颤栗，而实际上这样的直白更多的是不适，也不是没有其他方法达到这类意图。用时间递进的“X周”，也可商榷，对于一个想要堕胎的女性，时间的每一分钟都是煎熬，周与周之间的差别不是最重要的（哪怕是会显怀，哪怕是会面临无法流产的危机）。然而我是喜欢剧本中的一些台词的，那体现了创作者对生活的观察。演员和运镜也很好，诗意里的残酷和不安，美好之下的焦虑。电影且具有象征性，一个人违背伦理，怀着祸患（不是怀瑾握瑜），他将如何以一己之力对付整个世界的不配合和目光，他能如何铤而走险，甚至有可能赌上生命只为回归一个不理想的世界。说到底是世界总是一个人的战斗。
看到身心都会痛的电影。如果没有合法安全堕胎的途径，一个没有犯任何错误、只是因为所谓可笑的命运的偶然和随机波动的一个概率，就要在切断人生的希望和冒着生命危险非法堕胎之间做出选择。这过程中女性承受的生理和心理恐惧，肉体和精神的疼痛，那种带着随时可能会死、得并发症也在所不惜的决心，鼓起勇气让自己或医生将冰冷、细长又尖锐器物插进阴道的决心，那些说着pro-life的男人完全不了解，也不想理解。
但凡女子，同一命运。
