yann arthus-bertrand is undertaking a fascinating project called 6 billion others.  people talk honestly into a camera about various topics, like money, discrimination, lovers, nature, happiness, et cetera.
the camera angles of the people are very intimate, showing close-up head shots with great lighting.   the people interviewed come from all over the world and their words are translated alongside their image.  several times i listened to a few minute passage, with several people speaking on a particular topic... first time thru i read the translations, then the second time, i just listened without reading, watching their faces and listening to their sounds.  i really enjoyed just listening to how the languages sound.   fascinating!  
its worth checking out: 6 billion others.
