Sacred Planet
Filmed in IMAX, this is a journey around the world to some of the most exotic and beautiful places. From the last remaining old growth forests of British Columbia, the snowy peaks and glaciers of Alaska, the red rock canyons of Utah and Arizona, the tropical jungles and underwater mysteries of Borneo, the ancient ruins of Thailand and remote deserts of Namibia to the white sand beaches of New Zealand. Stunning images that include the landscape, the people and the animals indigenous to the land, all serve as visceral reminders of this planet's infinite variety and biological diversity. The narrative is mainly a compilation of excerpts from interviews with Elders of indigenous cultures around the world. These Elders represent some of the last living messengers of a way of life from which all of humankind originated. They explain firsthand how they have lived and what they have learned from countless generations before them. They share their views on living in balance with our natural surroundings, drawing from their own personal experiences, and from the traditions of their people.
