They glide through our urban jungles, breed on the river’s edge and feel quite at home in our backyards. You thought they were far away, in the wild. You’re wrong. They’re here. The urban invaders – a red squirrel nesting in the bird feeder, a duck on the balcony or a hedgehog at the cat food dish. Join us on a journey into a well known territory, with very unexpected encounters...

The Tarahumara people of Mexico, the Yapese of Micronesia, the Suri of Ethiopia, the Inuit of Greenland, the Yanomami of Brazil and the Wodaabe of Niger: different peoples, different cultures, different languages and different environments. Yet the one thing most of them have in common is that their knowledge and values are disappearing.

What happens when your patients are more interested in eating you for lunch than listening to your advice? Wildlife veterinarian Doctor Johan Joubert’s office is in the Shamwari Game Reserve in South Africa and his patients aren’t ordinary patients... Every day, Johan risks his life helping Africa’s big cats, the deadliest of all predators: lions, leopards and cheetahs.
Humans have explored and settled in Europe for thousands of years. But at its very heart, in the highest Alpine peaks, a world exists in parallel. It is home to thousands of species of plants and animals, all of whom owe their survival to their remarkable capacity for evolution. They live in conditions that for other species – humans included – would be barely tolerable. For them, this is everyday life. Forget skiing and chalets: this is life at the Alpine limits.

The world of bugs – insects and arachnids – is as spectacular as that of the big mammal predators, but even more bizarre. Exploring this world in close-up 3D takes us into a strange, dramatic and alien universe that defies the imagination. This film focuses on the most ambitious insect and arachnid stories, almost all never filmed before in 3D.
