Synopsis
A cinematic journey through the transformative beauty and raw power of water. Captured at a rare 96 frames-per-second, the film is a wake-up call that humans are no match for the sheer force and capricious will of Earth’s most precious element. From the precarious frozen waters of Russia’s Lake Baikal to Miami in the throes of Hurricane Irma to Venezuela’s mighty Angel Falls, water is the film’s main character.
