Descent: Into the Blue

Narrated by Peter Coyote, this journey into the ocean's depths reveals the urgent fight to save critically endangered coral reefs amid climate change, inspired by the symphony Terra Nostra. Through stunning underwater vistas, researchers and volunteers battle catastrophic bleaching affecting over 75% of the world's reefs, rebuilding ecosystems with resilience despite failures and sacrifice. Young students recite ocean-inspired poetry, echoing the Starfish parable that small actions matter, while a generational torch passes from seasoned advocates to emerging protectors, all set to an original score mirroring the sea's colors, textures, and currents in movements of majesty, exploration, problem, battle, and hope.
