Disney's "People and Places" takes us to the home of over 90% of the world's ice, where we learn a little of the statistics of this vast continent before spending a little time illustrating - with archive - the Amundsen and Scott race to the South Pole. The Norwegian made it home safely, the Britons weren't so fortunate. Now, Winston Hibler gets his book of handy facts out and tells us the polar plateau is 10,000 feet high. No four footed creatures, no insects - just mighty glaciers that break off into mammoth icebergs and tiny droplets of ice that forms on the water like a scum. Talking of might, we see just how effective modern day ice-breakers can be. Their visit to help set up seven bases to house task forces of American scientists charged with learning more about this frozen wilderness. The establishment of these little villages was not an easy operation but eventually the fleet was able to carry out "Operation Deep Freeze". 5,000 men and all their equipment made inroads into this pristine territory where their prefabricated houses of plywood and aluminium were constructed before being largely abandoned for winter. This is the season the photography could have become interesting, but this documentary choses to move indoors at this stage and show us how the people got by. Pity, that. Daylight returns and it's back to the building and exploring - and our first exposure to the penguins whom the people hoped to relocate from what was there ancestral breeding ground - a very early example of filmed human thoughtlessness! The remainder of the documentary follows the intrepid work of the summer crews left to finish building and photograph some of the beautiful and hitherto untouched natural features (until they dynamited them, that is). Pretty soon the landscapes were now dotted with these little towns with all of their concomitant junk, rubbish and rusting wreckage. A terrible plane crash killed four people and reminded everyone that technology isn't always the answer in this hostile terrain. Next, they wanted to install a "city for science" on the South Pole itself and I'm afraid I rather lost interest in the scientific elements of this and started to wonder at the thoughtless vandalism being carried out here with no regard for the damage being done. The photography is astonishing but this all too quickly becomes an American Armed forces flag-waving exercise, and also increasingly annoying.
Wildlife photographer Richard Sidey joins an international team of whale research scientists in Antarctica to document their work on how Humpback Whales are adapting to a changing ocean.
An epic story of adventure, starring some of the most magnificent and courageous creatures alive, awaits you in EARTH. Disneynature brings you a remarkable story of three animal families on a journey across our planet – polar bears, elephants and humpback whales.
Baby Emperor Penguin Pengi and Sommi's Ultimate Challenge Begins! At 60 degrees below zero, winter has come to the South Pole, the coldest glacial region in the world. Abandoned due to its bitter coldness, the South Pole is greeted by the real natives of this place, the Emperor Penguins, who have come to welcome new lives. Through the indescribable love and care given by mom and dad, baby Emperor Penguins Pengi and Sommi awake from their egg shells. Gluttonous Pengi, the number one trouble maker in the South Pole, and cutie Sommi, who loves daddy's embrace the best, become great friends. Then one day, Sommi’s dad goes out to the sea to seek her out. Sommi left all alone, cold and starving to the brink of death, and Pengi desperately tires to help Sommi through her troubles. Could Pengi and Sommi possibly overcome numerous hardships and become beautiful full-grown Emperor Penguins?
Sir Ranulph Fiennes is credited as being the World’s Greatest Living Explorer. Among his extraordinary achievements, he was the first to circumnavigate the world from pole to pole, crossed the Antarctic on foot, broke countless world records, and discovered a lost city in Arabia. He has travelled to the most dangerous places on Earth, lost half his fingers to frostbite, raised millions of pounds for charity and was nearly cast as James Bond. But who is the man who prefers to be known as just ‘Ran’?
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!!
Herzog and cinematographer Peter Zeitlinger go to Antarctica to meet people who live and work there, and to capture footage of the continent's unique locations. Herzog's voiceover narration explains that his film will not be a typical Antarctica film about "fluffy penguins", but will explore the dreams of the people and the landscape.
This large format film explores the last great wilderness on earth. It takes you to the coldest, driest, windiest continent, Antarctica. The film explores the life in Antarctica, both for the animals that live their and the scientist that work there.
A non-verbal visual journey to the polar regions of our planet portrayed through a triptych montage of photography and video. Landscapes at the World's Ends is a multi-dimensional canvas of imagery recorded above the Arctic Circle and below the Antarctic Convergence, viewed through the lens of whom is realistically an alien in this environment, the polar tourist. Filmed during several artist residencies on-board three expedition vessels, New Zealand nature photographer and filmmaker Richard Sidey documents light and time in an effort to share his experiences and the beauty that exists over the frozen seas. Set to an ambient score by Norwegian Arctic based musician, Boreal Taiga, this experimental documentary transports us to the islands of South Georgia, the Antarctic Peninsula, Greenland and Svalbard. Landscapes at the World's Ends is the first film in Sidey's Speechless trilogy, and is followed by Speechless: The Polar Realm (2015) and Elementa (2020).
Arctic Tale is a 2007 documentary film from the National Geographic Society about the life cycle of a walrus and her calf, and a polar bear and her cubs, in a similar vein to the 2005 hit production March of the Penguins, also from National Geographic.
The first documentary that describes the official policy and coverage of the sixth continent. With humor and beautiful landscapes in 4k, we will find out if Antarctica is an example of global peace, science and the environment, the scene of the next great war.
Antarctica: A Frozen History takes a look at the history and stories of the human explorations in the Antarctic. Although quite slow paced and relatively old, the documentary film successfully incorporates reconstructed film material and original Antarctic expedition footage to fully illustrate the hardships of the heroic and extreme arctic explorations. Human endurance is tested to the maximum, as the documentary takes a look back at those who have tried, failed and conquered this most unforgiving landscape. Some of these stories entail Robert Falcon Scott, a Royal Navy officer and explorer who led two expeditions to the Antarctic regions: the Discovery expedition of 1901–1904 and the ill-fated Terra Nova expedition of 1910–1913. Scott reached the South Pole in January 1912 only to find he had been beaten to the spot by 33 days. His entire party died on the return journey; eight months later, a search party discovered some of their bodies, diaries and photographs.
