Sealed roads, public transport and water from the tap: most humans now live in urban centres and never think about the luxuries they enjoy. Yet, not everybody has access to these comforts; many people continue to live in nature. Although it may appear romantic, the reality requires ingenuity and an ability to adapt. Life dependent on nature’s whims can be idyllic but the people who live in nature have to make many sacrifices. And yet, cultures like the Nanai, the river people of Russia, continue traditions such as ice fishing. Similarly, ice fishing remains popular in Canada. It is about far more than just the fish: it is about maintaining traditions and spending time in nature. From remote mountains and forests to distant islands, in the face of the inexorable spread of modernity, the cultures and people featured in this documentary continue to celebrate life ‘Next to Nature’.

Bugs Bunny has nothing on real rabbits and hares! Marvel as these outstanding athletes use sexy moves and cunning survival strategies to outwit, outmaneuver, and outplay their predators in this visually rich and informative documentary. Rabbits and hares are best known for wearing pocket watches and velveteen jackets, as beloved storybook characters and for their impressive ability to procreate. But as we delve deep into their world you’ll see how real rabbits and hares are far more fascinating than can be imagined! They are keystone species that play a vital role in ecosystems from the Rocky Mountains to the deserts of Arizona, from the northern reaches of Canada’s frozen boreal forest to the concrete jungle of downtown Chicago. Join scientists in the field as they work tirelessly to save native rabbit species from the brink of extinction. But most of all, gain a new appreciation for species that are the underdogs of the natural world. We challenge the common misconception that the world is awash with bunnies as we explore the incredible challenges rabbits and hares face in the wild — from habitat loss to climate change — to learn how even though their numbers are down, we shouldn’t count these important and under rated animals out. For it is the rabbits that can adapt, the ones that can move and change with the times, who may in the end prove themselves to be the ultimate survivors. Join us to find out just how surprising and remarkable real rabbits and hares can be! Remarkable Rabbits Inc/
