Fragments of the filmmaker's 16mm home movies; explorations in the remote deserts of New Mexico; a speech given by Carl Sagan to Congress in 1985; Norse mythologies as they relate to extinction events, as told by Icelandic poets; an analysis of Alan Moore's 1980's run on the Swamp Thing comic book, about a plant that believes itself to be a man; a brief history of the Earth's five previous mass extinction events; and an extraterrestrial entity that come to Earth to study human activities, The Anthropocene Cycle weaves these and other historical and fictive threads into an audio-visual collage of ideas about what it means to be living on Earth during this period of multispecies peril.
