Human Flow
First screened in November 2017
Director: Ai Weiwei. Documentary survey of contemporary refugee and migration crises unfolding around the world.

Twitter Capsule: The planet looks terminal; its people are flailing badly. Some limits as art or analysis, but a bold act of witnessing.

VOR:   Even if Ai might have delved deeper than the chiron-scale captions he offers, it's a valuable record of populations as well as a planet in decay.
