Synopsis:
"Zugzwang" is a feature-length documentary that deals with some of the main dilemmas mankind is facing today. Global warming, which is affecting planet Earth, is probably man-made and has serious consequences for the future of all forms of life. The traditional usage of finite fossil fuels are one of the important causes of it and indicate us a coherent search for clean and renewable energy sources. Biomass, which takes advantage of materials originated from plant and animal biota, is an important component of the future’s energy matrix, and involves a responsible management of our ecosystems, where the agricultural frontier promotes no deforestation and relieve hunger in the world. Sustainability is the big challenge that arises for mankind and each one of us, where human actions should include to the economic viability the social and the environmental responsibility. The metaphor "Zugzwang" leads us through the interviews, showing that just as in a chess game, we have to move—skipping your own turn is not possible. The future depends on us and in our current actions.
