If you were a child of the early 80s, chances are you watched Rolf Forsberg's post apocalyptic short, Ark, in science class. And if you were young enough like I was, it left an indelible impression on you and you'd just love to see it's breathtaking 1970s bleakness all over again.
Synopsis:
Set in a near-future Earth where the atmosphere is so polluted that most species are extinct and humans must wear gas masks outdoors, one man finds a pond with some small breath of life left in it, builds a greenhouse around it, and delicately but diligently tries to bring it back to life.
Father of Mega Piranha director, Eric Forsberg, Rolf's history as a film and theater director is a little less schlocky. He is most known for directing such films as the award winning Parable and the very odd Stalked which has been described as "Carnival of Souls for Christ.
