March of the Penguins
Each winter, alone in the pitiless ice deserts of Antarctica, deep in the most inhospitable terrain on Earth, a truly remarkable journey takes place as it has done for millennia. Emperor penguins in their thousands abandon the deep blue security of their ocean home and clamber onto the frozen ice to begin their long journey into a region so bleak, so extreme, it supports no other wildlife at this time of year. In single file, the penguins march blinded by blizzards, buffeted by gale force winds. Resolute, indomitable, driven by the overpowering urge to reproduce, to assure the survival of the species.
Why would you want to watch a documentary on penguins? Because their dedication and sacrifice to raise their next generation will move you. And their tenderness towards each other and their baby penguin is so apparent.
It is sad, funny and amazing at the same time. It shows us one of nature's most incredible journeys, and teaches us that life is a miracle. This extraordinary glimpse into the life of the emperor penguins is far more than a story of survival: it is a unique love story of immense proportions. "Aside from constantly wondering how Jacquet's team pulled off capturing a never-ending series of amazing shots, you're left with the constant, inescapable thought that it ain't easy being a penguin."
This story of survival is a must-see. :)
