When he comes across a photograph by *Sebastião Salgado* by chance, *Wim Wenders* falls in love with the way Salgado looks at mankind. Years later, now friends, they decide to collaborate on a project begin by the photographer’s son, Juliano, who filmed his father as they traveled around the world. *Wim Wenders* looks at Salgado’s unusual journey, armed with his artistic eye to confront the beauty and hostility of a world torn by war, famine and forced emigration, but also to pay homage to the magic of a planet full of resources.
