Episode 1 • Oct 19, 2009
Aquatic Illusion
In the stunning pacific islands, a quest begins to find the true meaning of the fishes colours. In such vibrant, dazzling display, how do marine animals advertise services, entice mates, yet simultaneously avoid being eaten? Crypsis, camouflage, mimicry and masquerade: witness colour as an integral part of social behaviour. Unravelling the paradox of disguise and display, discover a world of illusion, not designed for human eyes. Fizzing with energy, 'Aquatic Illusion' is an intricately structured portrait of a complex world of colour. Backed by the worlds leading Scientists, this is a provocative revelation of a world, where all is far from what it seems.
Episode 2 • Oct 19, 2009
Into Fisheye
To understand a world not designed for human eyes, we need to see it from a different point of view. Invisible colours, eye metamorphosis, secret wavelengths and vision beyond anything we can perceive; how they see, what they see and the astonishing discovery that in their world, we're blind. - Introducing footage exclusive to 'Water Colours' and entirely new to science, 'Into Fisheye' is a dive deep into the fishes eyes and the astonishing revelation about what they really see.
Episode 3 • Dec 31, 1969
Fisheye Illusion
In the stunning pacific islands, a quest begins to find the true meaning of the fishes colours. In such vibrant, dazzling display, how do marine animals advertise services, feed and simultaneously avoid being eaten? Encounter enigmatic animals with vision beyond anything we can perceive, including secret wavelengths, eye metamorphosis, polarization and UV. How fish see and what they see brings the overwhelming revelation that in their world, human beings are virtually 'blind'. Backed by the worlds leading Scientists and introducing exclusive footage new to science, this is an intricately structured portrait of a complex world of colour, uncovering the truth about how fish see colours - and each other - in a world of illusion, where all is far from what it seems.
Episode 4 • Sep 19, 2009
The Changers
Setting sail aboard the magnificent 'MV Santa Maria', marine explorers Guy and Anita research and explore the enigma of colour change. Controlling how they look, altering patterns on a whim and instantaneously 'turning on' spots and stripes, marine animals share words of love with a mate on the left; simultaneously shout warnings to an aggressor on the right. How does the master of camouflage become colours he can't see? Why radically transform, in the blink of an eye? Colour is the language of love and emotion, tricks, scams, anger, pleasure and fear. Talking and gesturing in ever-changing display, how do marine animals change colour? Why change colour? And what do they say?
Episode 5 • Sep 19, 2009
Magic Blue Wave
Compulsive viewing transporting us back to premier ocean discovery - In a world where communication is ruled by colour display, marine animals have adapted to the underwater blues, by changing colour themselves - and, by changing colour, itself!. Revealing mind-blowing behaviour never seen or filmed before, astonishing images new to science and extraordinary phenomena, still far from understood, 'Magic Blue Wave' is a sensational world premiere, exploring the magic of underwater fluorescence and the inconceivable ability of marine animals to change one colour, into another. From Green Blennies becoming pink, to the exhilarating first ever 600m fluorescent shark, as marine animals change the very course of nature itself, vivid, electrifying images only heighten the ultimate questions of how they do this, and why.
Episode 6 • Sep 19, 2009
Invisible Waves
How can we truly understand a language of colour, if marine animals talk and display in colours we cant see? At the cutting edge of marine science, 'measuring' the wavelengths to 'see' colours we can't perceive reveals hidden signals, invisible displays, polarization and UV. Flashing ultra violet messages indecipherable by predators, communicating in patterns visible only to select eyes, the fish talk animatedly in cryptic channels of colour. Using the latest technology to interpret a language beyond our visible range, in the most intimate, exhilarating understanding yet, discover the 'secret' language of fish.

Cries from Syria

Cries from Syria

CRIES FROM SYRIA is a searing, comprehensive account of a brutal five-year conflict from the inside out, drawing on hundreds of hours of war footage from Syrian activists and citizen journalists, as well as testimony from child protesters, leaders of the revolution, human rights defenders, ordinary citizens, and high-ranking army generals who defected from the government. Their collective stories are a cry for attention and help from a world that little understands their reality or agrees on what to do about it. A documentary by Evgeny Afineevsky, director of the Oscar-nominated film WINTER ON FIRE, CRIES FROM SYRIA premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.
