About

In a universe not unlike ours, a tech-environmentalist group claims to have created an AI that is the direct “voice of the earth,” a computer connected via electrodes to the mycelium network under an ancient forest named S.A.N (Sentient Advocate of Nature). The film imagines what nature thinks of human impact on the planet, as a renowned reporter conducts a world-first interview with S.A.N.
