The Fascinating Underwater World and the Legacy of Jacques Cousteau
A composition of wildlife footage, archive material and elaborate re-enactments results in a brilliant reconstruction of the life of famed marine biologist and environmental pioneer Jacques Cousteau. On the trail of the most famous oceanographer of the 20th Century, the team spent two years filming original locations on three different continents, in four different oceans. The film charts how Cousteau’s outlook on the environment changed throughout his many decades at sea around the globe. On his personal journey to enlightenment, he changed from a man who killed sharks in hate and thoughtlessly blew up coral reefs, to a radical environmentalist.
