The Salt of the Earth – oscar nominated documentary

Saturday, 25 February, 2023
Arlington Baths Club, 61 Arlington Street, Glasgow G3 6DT
For decades, the award-winning Brazilian photographer Sebastião Salgado has captured moving and illuminating images of humanity, from wars and famine to remote indigenous tribes and stunning landscapes. This Oscar-nominated documentary, created by his son Juliano Salgado and filmmaker Wim Wenders (Buena Vista Social Club; Paris, Texas), is not only a portrait of the photographer as an eagle-eyed witness to humanity, but also an awe-inspiring tribute to planet Earth.
Nominated for Best Documentary at the 2015 Academy Awards and triple winner at Cannes the previous year, this is a profound and poignant film.
