OCEAN WITH DAVID ATTENBOROUGH
OCEAN WITH DAVID ATTENBOROUGH
A short film to mark his 99th birthday - after a lifetime devoted to filming and observing the natural world - David Attenborough offers a kind of personal manifesto, taking the audience to the most vital place on our planet. It isn’t on land, but beneath the surface of the water, in the ocean itself.
A short film to mark his 99th birthday - after a lifetime devoted to filming and observing the natural world - David Attenborough offers a kind of personal manifesto, taking the audience to the most vital place on our planet. It isn’t on land, but beneath the surface of the water, in the ocean itself.
No one has witnessed more change – or the devastating effects of humanity’s impact on nature – than Sir David Attenborough. His lifetime spans an era of extraordinary scientific discovery and growing understanding of the delicate balance sustained by our oceans. A story that everyone needs to hear.
Using breathtaking imagery, the film takes us beneath the surface to a mysterious world that supports life on Earth and remains our greatest ally in the fight against climate change. We would be outraged if someone were to send a bulldozer into a rainforest – yet every day, in thousands of places across the oceans, we do exactly that. Hidden from sight, vast trawlers scour the seabed, destroying fragile ecosystems and leaving behind underwater graveyards.
OCEAN WITH DAVID ATTENBOROUGH is both a wake-up call and a plea for awareness – delivered at the very last moment when change is still possible. And yet, amid the warning, there is hope: the oceans have a remarkable capacity for renewal, far greater than we once believed. All we have to do is give them the chance. If we save the oceans, we save our world.
