Summary
THE ANTHROPOLOGIST examines climate change like no other film before. The fate of the planet is considered from the perspective of American teenager Katie Crate. Over the course of five years, she travels alongside her mother Susie, an anthropologist studying the impact of climate change on indigenous communities. Their journey parallels that of renowned anthropologist Margaret Mead, who for decades sought to understand how global change affects remote cultures. THE ANTHROPOLOGIST was selected by more than 50 film festivals around the world, winning Best Documentary at Arizona and Nevada and Le Prix Grand ©cran at Pariscience. It was selected as opening night film at both Greenwich and Santa Cruz, where it won the EarthVision Environmental Feature Award. The UN invited THE ANTHROPOLOGIST to screen at a gala event at the COP21 Paris Climate Conference. After a vigorous theatrical run in 2016, THE ANTHROPOLOGIST enjoys a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes
