This film explores the biodiversity and protection of Antarctica, highlighting the impact of climate change on the continent. Protected by an international treaty, Antarctica has largely avoided exploitation, but concerning changes are evident in the ice and its ecosystems. Marine biologist and photographer Laurent Ballesta dives beneath the ice to document unique underwater life and contribute to scientific understanding. Simultaneously, photographer Vincent Munier captures the lives of an Emperor Penguin colony on land. Their combined perspectives reveal the fragility of this vital region and its connection to the global environment.
