The story

What Is Blue Planet About?

The premise of Blue Planet without spoilers.

Seen from the unique perspective of 200 miles above the planet, the film reveals how natural forces—volcanoes, earthquakes, hurricanes—shape Earth, while also showing how humanity, a powerful new force, is reshaping the landscape. Traversing the Amazon rainforest to the Serengeti grasslands, it inspires a fresh appreciation for life on our only home.
