Our orientation to Earth is so much a part of how we perceive and understand things - so habitual - that it's one of the reasons I think we don't immediately see what our relationship with the planet really is. Turn us upside down though, as this filmmaker did, and I think there's at least a different sense of our relationship with the planet? How we're suspended on top of it, like a boat floats on water. We're as much creatures of the sky - space - as we are of the land, but being upright usually hides that from us a bit.
