What have you learned from your parents? What does love mean to you?" A project of "Earth From Above" photographer Yann Arthus Bertrand, 6 Billion Others weaves together video portraits of lives across the globe. Each face is strikingly different. Each answer is remarkably human. Emerging from Bertrand's quest "to learn to live together," these vignettes capture the stunning diversity of mankind while unleashing the universal nature of humanity.
