The world of snow in pictures
In 'Melt', Austrian filmmaker Nikolaus Geyrhalter focuses his camera on one of the most fragile and rapidly changing natural environments on Earth: the world of snow. From mountain villages and winter sports resorts to scientific stations on the edges of the Arctic Circle, you see the many ways people learn to live with snow. The film captures their efforts to control it and even recreate it. Behind the beauty of these frozen landscapes lies an intricate connection between nature, technology, and human ambition.
A journey through disappearing landscapes
In some places, glaciers are melting rapidly and seasons are disrupted. Elsewhere, snow is created to entertain tourists. With his compelling visual style, Geyrhalter shows the infrastructure, work, and daily routines that enable people to inhabit and change landscapes shaped by extreme climatic conditions. This is an important cinematic journey through landscapes that may soon exist only in memory.
