A Flammable Planet

Published 2022-11-07
Climate change and wildfires mutually reinforce each other, and the fires burning today in many parts of the world are bigger, more intense, and last longer than they used to.

This is the story of a rabbit, a symbol of all life affected by such catastrophic fires. In the film, as in real life, the vicious cycle of wildfires has devastating consequences on people, wildlife and the climate. Wildfires are a critical global issue that needs urgent solution – this includes halting deforestation, changing the way land is used and fighting climate change.

NOMINT animation studio used an innovative combination of a highly flammable set and props, and real fire, to create a shocking sense of visual jeopardy. The film was shot entirely in-camera and used traditional stop-motion techniques together with slow-motion, timelapse, and long-exposure to create the original visuals. Directed by NOMINT co-founders Yannis Konstantinidis and Christos Lefakis in collaboration with animator Jua Braga, music by Ted Regklis, and colour grading by Tom Mangham at Black Kite Studios.

    This is so sad. I thought of those koala bears in the Australian fires. Heart breaking.
  • My heart goes out to the innocent animal kingdom, often suffering due to human greed and selfishness! Man is the most dangerous predator on our planet!!! Stop blaming the animals!

    Tell Putin to stop the grand-grapping war he can never win, and stop being hated by the whole world for causing massive human misery. Instead choose to become a saviour of the planet, the all-time most admired human being since history began, for choosing to lead all our world leaders in a massive rescue operation for our dying planet😢!
  • I want to work for you, WWF (I probably will because I love nature and animals, I made your panda-planet quiz and got all right on first try)

    Animal agriculture is the leading driver of deforestation. Start with what you eat!!!
