In a State of Change, a social documentary featuring wildlife photographer Donal Boyd, seeks to illustrate the climate crisis. Boyd compares historical photos, some a century old, with the current state of Iceland's glaciers.
The concept of the film is simple: document the retreat of glaciers in Iceland, where both Boyd and Nieuwenhuis live, and explain what this means for Icelanders and the world. The challenge of doing so, however, pushes Boyd to reexamine photography as a communication medium, and it incites other storytellers to express their own version of this harrowing social and environmental crisis.
As one way to tell his story, Boyd takes vintage photos — some that are a century old — back to the spot where they were taken and he photographs the same scene. The results show a dramatic loss of ice, but can viewers on distant continents ever connect with this on a deeper level? Boyd isn’t so sure.Along the way, Boyd meets with a writer, a glacier guide, scientists and an Icelandic woman who has lived her whole life by a glacier.
