The Seventy Degree Route is not fictional. It follows climatologist Brian Brettschneider’s proposal - a year-long road trip across the U.S., always maintaning a constant 70°F (21°C).
Films have long exploited real landscapes and environmental tragedies, embedding warnings inside spectacles of collapse. They raise awareness yet numb audiences through repetition and sensationalism. Cinematic destruction blurs dangerously with real-world catastrophe, evident in both fictional narratives and the daily bombardment of disasters presented by news channels. At the same time, film-making has developed the most complex and suitable tools for simulation and preparation.
The project intentionally inhabits this unstable ground. Can shifting our gaze, reconsidering the ways in which we view spectacle, inspire meaningful action?
