Last week in class we saw a short film called 'Varmints'. The movie tells about the issue of urbanization, and the small creature character's struggle through it. The main character never forgets about the nature that they had before urbanization and tries hard to get the environment and their peaceful lives back.
The story starts off peacefully with the imaginary creatures investigating on plants with heir magnifying glass at surrounded by beautiful nature. However, suddenly all the nature and the plants get destroyed by the construction of enormous buildings. In the end of the movie, the main character's small act of love against nature eventually saves his and his companion's lives.
I believe that the message of this film was to remind us how important nature is to people and how we all tend to forget them. Urbanization might be necessary in modern lives, but it is important to keep in mind that it is difficult to maintain the balance of urbanization and protecting the environment.
