Every year, thousands of Antarctica's emperor penguins make an astonishing journey to breed their young. They walk, marching day and night in single file 70 miles into the darkest, driest and coldest continent on Earth. This amazing, true-life tale is touched with humour and alive with thrills. Breathtaking photography captures the transcendent beauty and staggering drama of devoted parent penguins who, in the fierce polar winter, take turns guarding their egg and trekking to the ocean in search of food. Predators hunt them, storms lash them. But the safety of their adorable chicks makes it all worthwhile. So follow the leader... to adventure!!

Between documentary and animation, this film delves into collective memory, rescuing ancestral symbols and reopening old questions: what future remains when we forget the past? Profundo is born to inspire—to remind us that each whale carries the history of the planet, that each sea holds what we have not yet been able to protect. It is an urgent, sensitive, and visually intimate appeal that invites us to see the ocean as a living, sacred, and vulnerable territory.

Tardigrades, also known as water bears, are microscopic animals famous for their incredible ability to survive extreme conditions. Despite their funny appearance and slow, bear-like movements, they are among the most resilient creatures on Earth. They can withstand extremely high and low temperatures, enormous pressure, toxic substances, and even high levels of radiation. This documentary explores the secrets behind their remarkable survival abilities and explains how these tiny creatures have developed such extraordinary “superpowers.” Combining scientific information with humor, the documentary also looks at what we might learn from tardigrades and how their unique abilities could have potential applications in the future.

David Attenborough and scientist Johan Rockström examine Earth's biodiversity collapse and how this crisis can still be averted.

How do German couples communicate in private? What are they arguing about? Is the way to a man’s heart really through his stomach?

At first, our fox is emotionally contained, while the penguin lady may get wild as hell. With a wink, the filmmakers hold up a mirror to the audience in the cinema.

Coral reefs are believed by many to have the highest biodiversity of any ecosystem on the planet. A lot of the life found here can seem very alien at first, they occupy less than 1 percent of the ocean floor but yet are home to more than 25 percent of all marine life. Warm water reefs typically come to mind when thinking of the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, these reefs are very well known but they don’t just occur in warm waters. In this one hour special, we are brought into this alien environment and discover for ourselves a strange, hidden world that is simply abundant with life, ranging from the weird to the wonderful.

Le peuple du requin et moi

Gombessa Expedition 3 Protected by an international treaty Antarctica has been spared the effects of hunting and fishing. But signs in ice’s cyclical patterns and its biodiversity have become worrying. Connected to the planet’s global ecosystem via atmospheric circulation and ocean currents, this white haven is suffering the effects of human activities. To document and explain what is unfolding in Antarctica, photographer, diver, and marine biologist Laurent Ballesta and photographer of extreme environments Vincent Munier will be blending their artistic perspectives of a rapidly changing continent. Laurent will tackle technical and human prowess below the ice to bear witness to its remarkable underwater life. His photographs will advance knowledge on Antarctica’s unique and little-known biodiversity. On land, his eye riveted to the lens of his camera, Vincent captures snapshots of life in an Emperor Penguin colony.
