Life in a Day is one of the most amazing films I have ever seen. Produced by Ridley Scott and directed by Kevin Macdonald, its intention is to "capture what it was like to be alive on the 24th of July, 2010... for future generations".
4500 hours of footage was captured from 192 countries documenting people's lives over the course of the day, as well as answering a few questions, "What do you love? What do you fear? What's in your pocket?".
There is no particular story line or single theme, just some amazing footage that captures how diverse and extraordinary our world is. Across cultures and continents, we have the same fears, routines and fascinations, all with slight variances. The film does a great job of capturing our similarities and differences, giving some perspective to the vulnerability and diverse nature of humans.
