Today, April 22, is International Earth Day. It was first introduced in 1970 to draw human attention to the fragility of the ecosystem and to encourage them to be more mindful about it. By the way, this initiative was taken even by the gloss, who, as a rule, eschews the Earth theme and writes only about fashion.
But now it is so fashionable that any modern person should definitely be aware of it. That’s why we’ve collected a series of documentaries about the seas and oceans! And it is worth noting that it is not only informative, but also beautiful.
“oceans”
A painting by French producer Jacques Perrin that describes the world and its dangerous inhabitants, from South Africa to the Arctic and Antarctic polar regions. He also touched upon the issue of human crimes and actions related to the oceans.
“Ocean Surface: 10 Hours of Relaxing Ocean Views”
A 10 hour series of documentaries from the BBC. Each video is divided into its own section of the ocean: offshore, coastal waters, ocean surface and coral reefs. And the main feature of the work is that the video contains neither musical accompaniment nor commentary – only the sound of water and the cries of animals.
“Our Planet: Coastal Seas”
Netflix’s incredibly gorgeous environmental project Our Planet definitely deserves a spot in our selection. The Coastal Seas series only tells about life in a reservoir and its most dangerous inhabitants (you knew, for example, Red Tide algae – they are very poisonous and can cause mass death of animals).
“Black Fin”
The thriller from aspiring director Gabriela Cowperthwaite was shortlisted for an Oscar in 2014. This tape is about the tragic events of February 2010 when a killer whale killed its trainer at Sea World water amusement park. Whether it is possible to tame a causal and ferocious beast – this is said in the movie.
“Blue Quest”
Netflix documentary. The main character Sylvia Earl, a legendary oceanographer, marine biologist and environmentalist, talks about the creation of a global network of protected marine reserves.
“Plastic Ocean”
A documentary about how the world is drowning in plastic, what pollution will cause and how to solve this global problem. Says a group of international scientists.
