Synopsis

Narrator Michael Sivy opens this richly-illustrated program with this explanatory comment: In the depths of space, there seems neither limit nor direction, neither up nor down, only movement toward or away from. No day, no seasons, everywhere movement, nowhere rest. But man has learned to track the stars and count them, and slowly he has been able to bring a sense of order to his understanding of his own planet earth. Face of the World is a perhaps unique effort to see the earth as a whole and to trace mans attempts through the ages to expand his own knowledge and use of the planets geography.
