The film interweaves testimonies with aerial and landscape cinematography to explore universal themes such as love, family, conflict, identity, and dignity, asking fundamentally what it means to be human.

Over the course of three years, Arthus-Bertrand and his team conducted more than 2,000 interviews across 60 countries, creating a mosaic of human experience that transcends culture and geography.
