Evolver takes you on a journey through the processes that sustain all life, as air travels from the mouth into the lungs, whirling like a tornado, before circulating around the complex rivers and tributaries of our cardiovascular system.

This collective virtual reality experience drops audiences deep inside the landscape of the body, following the flow of oxygen through humans’ branching ecosystem to a single “breathing” cell. Through this narrative, it becomes clear that breath not only sparks life but connects us to the natural world through the cycle of respiration.

As this life force reaches the outer extremities, from the billowing synapses of the brain to our fingers and toes, the interior blooms into a forest of branching pathways, suffused by a fog of life-bringing oxygen. Through this transcendental narrative, it becomes clear that breath not only sparks life, but also connects us to the natural world through the cycle of respiration.

Executive produced by Edward R. Pressman and Terrence Malick, and alongside the French studio Atlas V, Evolver is guided by the voice of Academy Award-winning actor Cate Blanchett and features musical scores by Jonny Greenwood, Meredith Monk, Jóhann Jóhannsson, Howard Skempton and Jon Hopkins.
