Ocean Odyssey. Australia, 40 min, 2021. Wild Pacific average and Gin Clear Film.

Synopsis

"Ocean Odyssey" follows a pair of humpback whales (a mother and calf) on their great migration from the warm tropics to the icy waters of Antarctica, through an ocean current that harbors thousands of interconnected species.
 

As we cross multiple ecosystems, it becomes clear that the ocean is the blue heart of our entire planet, necessary for life as we know it, both at sea and on land. Our journey takes us from the smallest microscopic organisms to the largest animals ever to inhabit the planet, showing that their fragile interdependence is crucial to maintaining the health not only of the oceans, but also of our climate systems and our atmosphere.
