ABOUT OCEAN WITH DAVID ATTENBOROUGH:
OCEAN WITH DAVID ATTENBOROUGH takes viewers on a breathtaking journey, showing there is nowhere more vital for our survival, more full of life, wonder or surprise than the ocean.
The celebrated broadcaster and filmmaker reveals how his lifetime has coincided with the great age of ocean discovery. Through spectacular sequences featuring coral reefs, kelp forests and the open ocean, Attenborough shares why a healthy ocean keeps the entire planet stable and flourishing. Stunning, immersive cinematography showcases the wonder of life under the seas and exposes the realities and challenges facing our ocean as never-before-seen, from destructive fishing techniques to mass coral reef bleaching. Yet the story is one of optimism, with Attenborough pointing to inspirational stories from around the world to deliver his greatest message: The ocean can recover to a glory beyond anything anyone alive has ever seen.
Interviews with Toby Nowlan and Keith Scholey:
“If we protect a third of the sea the rest of it will fill with life again and that will be amazing! That will create a planet that’s more full of life for conservationists for fisheries full of ocean life. It will create a stable climate and a breathable atmosphere; so it’s a triple win for every single person and living thing on Earth.”
“The genius of the underwater stuff is shot by this guy Doug Anderson who is an underwater cinematographic genius! You know not only is he a superb diver and a superb naturalist but he is the master of composition. His images look very different from loads of what people have seen. Doug this amazing guy.”
