It is our light, our warmth, our food. Humans rise with it and fear its disappearance. But how well do we really know the sun? SUN AND MAN explores the essential relationship between humans and the sun, tracing the history of the fascinating star. International experts including anthropologists, historians and climatologists provide a 360° insight and help us understand how the sun has shaped us in many ways – from religious beliefs to our connection to time and even the color of our skin and the texture of our hairs. Thanks to science progress, we have also learned how to use it in return, putting the Sun back at the core of our environmental issues. A gripping documentary that shines a new light on man’s favourite star.
