Ocean: David Attenborough's new film will transform how you see Earth
“Once you’ve truly seen the sea, you’ll never look at Earth the same way again.” David Attenborough has spent nearly a century on Earth, bringing the mysteries of nature to viewers around the world. In his latest film, Ocean, he shows how humans still have so much to learn about life below the waves and its vital contribution to life on land. One of the film’s directors, the naturalist Colin Butfield, tells Radio Davos about some of the revelations in the movie and the accompanying book that he co-wrote with Attenborough.
