Join Andy Evans, Australian renewable energy pioneer, on a sweeping journey through ten countries where humanity’s bond with the sun has shaped civilisation, science, and survival. Planet Sun carries viewers from the pyramids of Teotihuacán and Chichén Itzá in Mexico, to the solstice light at Stonehenge in the UK and the winter sunrise at Newgrange in Ireland; from the blazing Mojave Desert at Ivanpah in the USA to the shimmering Northern Lights above Finland’s Arctic Circle. In Chile, solar plants power Santiago’s metro; in Morocco, Amazigh traders, desert caravans, and Marrakesh dyers live by the sun’s rhythms; in Madagascar, communities trade kerosene for clean solar light; while in France and Australia, cutting-edge projects explore solar fusion and renewable innovation.

More than a story of energy, Planet Sun is a meditation on connection — between nature, culture, and technology. Spanning continents and centuries, the film reveals how the sun has guided agriculture, navigation, architecture, and spirituality, while now driving breakthroughs in science and sustainable power. From ancient tombs aligned with the solstice to the world’s most advanced solar observatories, Planet Sun shows how our brightest star has always been central to human progress. At a time of transformation, it offers a vision of resilience and renewal — where our shared relationship with the sun lights the path to a sustainable future.
