"Ark" is a science fiction film that is only about twenty minutes long. The story is fairly simple: Sometime in a horrendously polluted, over-populated future, a lone man tries to preserve a part of the remaining natural world in a wetland habitat that he has created in his home.
To do this, he gradually collects surviving wildlife from the outside and transfers them to his home habitat. Everything seems to be going well until his preserve is discovered.
I first watched "Ark" when I was 14 and it has resonated with me over the years. Whenever I see a crushed bird on the side of the road or a familiar wood destroyed for "development" this film comes to mind.
