Settlers Film Club - Oceans

Oceans is Disney Nature's latest natural history feature film, released earlier this year. Showing at the Settlers Film Club.

Having shown a few films this season that look at the 'dark' side of our occupation and impact on the planet, this film should take us out of any 'doom and gloom' with its incredible photography and exploration of the underwater world.

Oceans (Disneynature's Oceans) - REVIEW.

Oceans is as grand and loosely defined as its title. Ambitious and awe-inspiring. First and foremost it's a triumph to look at. Its French filmmakers spent months tracking their underwater stars using the best new digital cameras, editing it with a view to keep the pace artfully maintained, as though they were in congruence with the oceans' swells and tides. Even for those who've overdosed on wildlife films, the team was rewarded by some unique, Oscar-winning performances: warrior-like crabs swarming on Australia's ocean floor, fish slipping into the folds of sharks' gills, dolphins voluntarily spinning through the air as though delivering a performance at an aquatic park.

Co-directors Jacques Cluzaud and Jacques Perrin team up for this documentary produced for Walt Disney Studios' Disneynature banner and exploring the many mysteries of our planet's oceans. Almost three-quarters of the earth's surface is covered by oceans, yet strangely we seem to know more about deep space than the world of the sea. There's no question that the ocean has played a crucial role in the history and sustenance of humankind, but what secrets does the underwater world hold? Follow filmmakers Cluzaud and Perrin beneath the ocean waves as they seek out the answer to this and explore the many dangers and mysteries of the deep. - Jason Buchanan.
