The inspiring world of Leonard da Vinci is brought to life by acclaimed BAFTA winning actor Peter Capaldi in a unique dramatised documentary
The Giant Oarfish, the largest bony fish in the world, was known only by rare examples that died by stranding, as well as one sole fossil. Its extraordinary dimensions, as long as 15 meters, and shape in the form of a silver ribbon, inspired the myth of the sea serpent. For the past two years, scientific buoys, immersed at a depth of two thousand meters in the Mediterranean, off the French Riviera, have attracted countless species of pelagic fish among them, the Giant Oarfish drifting vertically, alone or by pairs. With the help of the world expert in Giant Oarfish and logistic collaboration of enthusiasts, a scientific expedition reveals the biology of this enigmatic ambassador of the abyss. Entirely shot in Ultra High Definition, the film raises the veil on its paradoxical habits: why do all the adults self-mutilate and rid themselves of two-thirds of their bodies without being affected? How do they meet in the immensity of the ocean? Why does this fish not have any known predators?

来自约翰内斯堡金山大学的荣恩,在南非的斯泰克方丹山洞发现了一副术语阿法南方古猿的化石——小脚丫。小脚丫的面世足足花了二十年,她以一种至今成谜的方式掉落到一个不见天日的山洞中。而荣恩在那个昏暗、潮湿、空气中弥漫这发霉腐烂气味的山洞中,东找西挖,爬上爬下,由于角烁岩犹如混凝土般坚硬,但化石又尤其脆弱,因此他们这二十年来只能够用小工具一点点把岩石凿开,用小刷子把小脚丫的骨架一点点清理出来,难度显而易见。小脚丫历经近 400 万年,终于以自己的方式走进了现代文明。
