I Am a Burning Planet is a lyrical essay film that traces the shared trajectory of a body and a planet losing their ability to regulate heat. Drawing from the filmmaker’s lived experience of chronic illness, the film unfolds through a blend of diary, animation, and environmental inquiry. Historical documents, archival fragments, and contemporary climate events are woven together to reveal patterns of warning, adaptation, and uneven impact. Past and present move in conversation - early environmental signals echo through present-day heat waves, storms, and strained infrastructures - while the body registers these shifts in intimate, immediate ways. Moving between personal and planetary scales, the film considers what it means to live within systems under stress, while also remaining deeply interconnected. I Am a Burning Planet reflects on vulnerability, care, and interdependence, asking how bodies, ecosystems, and communities might adapt - not in isolation, but in relation - as the conditions of survival continue to change, and as the margins of what is livable begin to narrow.
