4. All That Breathes (2:29)
This was a beautiful, powerful film, and unique in its POV from the animals and insects, with humanity in the background, over and over. It shows the horror when we separate people into “boxes” that can be vilified and disrespected. Another fabulous element is the MUSIC. ALL THAT BREATHES deserves every single award it applies for. It will lift your heart, reward generosity given to these efforts, and leaves us with a little hope that we can all work to make the world a better place, for all.
