Building on ROM’s 2022 “Immortal” platform, the new “Opera” film directed by Rune Milton centers on a chimpanzee who sings an operatic aria from L’elisir d’amore – an impassioned love song to Earth and all the species that shaped our planet’s history. This three-minute piece creates an emotional connection between humans and nature by way of encouraging viewers to reconsider humanity’s place within Earth’s vast timeline and learn profound wisdom from our planet’s past five mass extinction events.
