Lake Life: Secrets benath the surface, Part 1, 2
Diving into the deep blue presents the nature of the lakes in Germany and Austria in never-before-seen images.
Description
Lakes of the Mountains, Part 1
When storms race across the mountain valleys, the lakes along the Alpine foothills transform into roaring oceans. These lakes wear many faces. What secrets lie hidden beneath their sometimes calm, sometimes tempestuous surfaces? This film uncovers the mysteries of the underwater world and visits places beyond the reach of humans, exploring realms that normally remain largely uncharted.
Lakes of the Coasts, Part 2
Seen from the shore – or even from the air – the surface of a lake appears as a shimmering blue plain, concealing the world beneath. A unique, vibrant world teeming with life. When the Scandinavian ice sheet retreated after the last Ice Age, it left behind numerous lakes in northeastern Germany. Lake Life: Secrets beneath the surfaces aims to uncover the secrets hidden beneath the surface of these lakes. To explore the deepest depths, where no one has ventured before.
