Journey to a wilderness few have dared to explore: Antarctica. In Antarctica 3D, venture to the farthest reaches of this wild and majestic continent—the coldest, driest, and windiest place on Earth. Dive beneath sea ice to experience alien seafloor worlds, where purple starfish race against encroaching ice and jellyfish perform a deadly dance. Swim alongside playful seals, soar above mountain peaks and vast penguin colonies, and marvel at the largest congregation of fin and humpback whales ever filmed. Antarctica is a land of mystery, and yet, what happens here affects every single one of us. Antarctica and its surrounding Southern Ocean play a vital role for our planet, regulating ocean currents, sea levels, and sequestering huge amounts of carbon. New science reveals alarming changes rapidly warming this pristine land of snow and ice—and it will take global cooperation to protect it and ensure the future health of our planet. Runtime: 45 mins. Narrated by Academy Award® nominated actor Benedict Cumberbatch.
