Our world is a pretty breathtaking place. Though often filled with disease, war and death, it's amazing to think that there are 6 billion individuals spread across the surface of the Earth all trying to live their lives one hardship and one success at a time. A truly great film tries to capture some of that reality, be it a movie about a man trying to keep his family together or Bruce Willis surviving an explosion to try and save his wife. It's an impossible task trying to tell the story of everyone on this planet, but Kevin Macdonald and Ridley Scott are trying.

National Geographic has launched the first trailer for Life in a Day, the film edited together from multiple YouTube videos that were shot around the globe on July 24, 2010. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and was simultaneously released on the site that bore it back in January, but will be released theatrically exactly one year after it was filmed.

Check out the trailer below.
