The Flip Side of Paradise
How is your garden related to the Anthropocene? This rather large question is the starting point of the documentary “Paradisets bakside”, now available with both Norwegian and English subtitles on Viten-TV.
Main content
The documentary is based on research results from Gardening the globe. Through domestic, suburban gardening, it explores the emergence of the Anthropocene as e.g. transnational processes of moving nature, eradication as part of the everyday life in gardens, contemporary gardens as places for consumption of water, soil and fertilizers and gardens as monocultural landscapes.
