Our Story is not a traditional documentary, but an immersive dome experience in which science, nature and technology merge. As the giant dome screen of the ARTIS Planetarium comes to life, you are immersed in the evolution of Earth: from volcanic landscapes and oceans full of life to the rise of humanity and the impact we have left on the planet.
The film fits seamlessly with the mission of ARTIS, where the relationship between humans, animals and nature has been central for generations. Especially in the Planetarium, Attenborough's message is given extra power. Here you not only look at the earth - you literally feel part of it.
With the distinctive voice of Sir David Attenborough as his guide, it gets Our Story an almost poetic charge. The legendary natural historian shows how vulnerable and resilient our planet is. At the same time, the film offers hopeful perspectives on the future.
“This could be the next chapter of our story, and of the Earth's story ... a time when we and our Earth are finally back on the same page.” - Sir David Attenborough
The production was developed by award-winning Open Planet Studios, known for such international nature productions as Ocean with David Attenborough and A Life On Our Planet. For ARTIS, this European premiere represents a special addition to the city's cultural program.
Our Story can be seen at the ARTIS Planetarium on May 28 and 30, and on June 4, 6, 11, 18, 20, 27 and July 4 and 9. For lovers of nature, science, film and innovative audiovisual experiences, this promises to be one of the most impressive cultural outings of the summer.
