Exclusive extracts from the film “Oceans,” Part 2

 
Making of “Oceans” in the Antarctic
Behind the curtain of ice and in between the ice floes, the people who will never appear on film relentlessly track the right moment to capture the most beautiful image.



 
The mother walrus and her baby
For those who persist in believing that animals have neither souls nor feelings, these pictures of a mother rolling her baby with her flipper to teach him how to swim while tenderly cradling him should make them think again.


 
The whales wake up
Wings on the water are conjured by the sight of these ocean giants swimming. So ample and fluid, so marvelously majestic.


 
Sardine run
This ocean meal produces an astonishing profusion of movement and vivacious images. Are we watching a ballet or a massacre? Whatever the case, it’s simply mind-blowing.
