Our Earth Our Oceans is a breathtaking visual journey that divulges the mesmerizing beauty and complexity of our planet. This thought-provoking documentary, scheduled in 2015, showcases breathtaking footage and an epic narration bringing to light Earth's enchanting locations, incredible natural phenomena, and the amazing symbiotic relationship between nature and humanity.

Composed of two integral parts - land and aquatic - this documentary takes us on a brillant exploration while impressively capturing all its occurrences, from the most regular to the entirely extraordinary. Our Earth Our Oceans, brings together an entirely new appreciation for the planet we call home, coupled with a better understanding of the delicate balance that exists within and around us.

On land, the camera starts with the vast African plains teeming with a multitude of wildlife, then transcends to the scale-defying Amazon rainforest where the life cycle of flora and fauna is intertwined in an intricate balance. It then touches upon far reaches of desolate Arctic tundra, the icy home to many unique animals like the Polar bears, Penguins, Seals, artic hares and the elusive Arctic fox. Each unique biome showcases the harsh climatic conditions, the hardy creatures that inhabit in these conditions and the everlasting fight for survival.

The beauty of the Earth doesn't just apply to its dry and mountainous landscapes. Beneath the ocean's surface, there's a whole new world that's as appealing and diverse as everything else earthbound. The visual narrative meanders to marine life showcasing the stunning coral reefs that host an array of exotic fish, the open seas that serve as a highway for majestic creatures like whales, dolphins, and sharks and deep-sea trenches inhabited by eclipsed deep-sea creatures, illuminating an often unseen world full of wonder and intrigue.

The focus on the story is not only about the fascinating denizens of these habitats but also about the interactions and symbiosis that make these systems function: the interplay between predators and prey, the mutualistic relationships, the food chains, and the delicate balance that is necessary to sustain life. An experienced voice narrates intriguing facts and hidden truths while the cameras do the talking visually.

As well as these natural spectacles, Our Earth Our Oceans also offers a balance of narratives about sentient beings, predominantly humans, and their necessary co-existence with the environment. The documentary showcases communities around the world who lead lives deeply rooted in their environment, following practices and traditions that have evolved over centuries. It brings to light how human actions affect the planet and the need for us to live in harmony with the natural world for overall planetary health.
