Compost Me

(Compostez moi)

A Belgian activist group seeks to legalise the composting of human bodies as an ecological alternative to burial, a method not yet legal in Belgium or any other EU country.

The idea of composting bodies stresses the spiritual and psychological aspects of the process. In fact, composting lets one see death as part of the natural cycle of life. The bereaved find comfort in the fact that their deceased loved ones are still present in their lives, for example in the form of a tree that emerges from the compost.

Wings of Dust

Vidal, 40, a journalist from southeastern Peru, once worked in a mine. He tries to tell the local community (and the rest of the world) how aggressive mining impacts the landscape. He puts his life at risk, and it won’t be long before politicians and multinational companies lose patience. Protect one’s own family or nature? This is the dilemma Vidal inevitably faces.
