In a world where the pursuit of health pushes us towards organic aisles and fresh produce, this film uncovers a chilling revelation: the very foods promoted for wellness might be our greatest peril. As we navigate grocery store aisles, seemingly benign items like romaine lettuce, cut fruit, and even infant formula hide tales of contamination and legal battles. This gripping exposé dives deep into the unsettling truth about our food, revealing risks where we least expect them. With every bite, we make choices about our health. But what if those choices, even the most well-intentioned ones, are not as safe as we believe? Poisoned: The Dirty Truth About Your Food challenges our perceptions and urges viewers to question: In the modern food landscape, is anything truly safe? The film is a truly call to action for the officials who have the power to mitigate the danger caused by foodborne pathogens that kill thousands of people every year.
This documentary tells the story a young polar bear's epic migration through the icy waters of Hudson Bay and his subsequent adventures on land, where he must spend the ice-free season. It is his first summer alone without his mother to guide and feed him. His struggle to survive is set against the biggest environmental story of our time: climate change. The stunning images were taken with more than eight different kinds of cameras including, for the first time, a polar bear collar-cam; a remote control Truck-cam; a mini Heli-cam, and several underwater cameras.
Inspired by his late mentor, Will Smith embarks on a 100-day, pole-to-pole odyssey that pushes him far beyond his comfort zone. Traveling alongside scientists, explorers, and local experts, he climbs remote mountains, dives beneath polar ice, and confronts the raw power of nature. The journey blends adrenaline and curiosity, revealing how extreme environments shape life—and how facing the planet’s edges can reshape us, too. In the first two episodes, the adventure begins with sweeping ambition and immediate immersion. Smith sets out on the global route with National Geographic, then plunges into the Amazon rainforest, tracking dangerous wildlife and learning from those who know the jungle best. It’s a vivid opening that sets the tone for a quest defined by discovery, risk, and awe at the natural world.
In episodes 3 and 4, the journey intensifies as Will Smith pushes deeper into both the physical and emotional extremes of the planet. In the Amazon, he ventures into dense, unforgiving jungle in search of the elusive green anaconda, confronting fear, danger, and the raw power of one of Earth’s most mysterious predators. Guided by local experts, the expedition becomes a test of courage and trust in a world where nature sets all the rules. The adventure then shifts dramatically to the Himalayas, where the challenge is no longer survival but meaning. High above the clouds, Will explores the idea of happiness alongside monks, scientists, and mountain communities, discovering how isolation, altitude, and ancient wisdom reshape the human mind. Together, these episodes connect the wildness of nature with the inner journey of self-discovery, revealing that the greatest expedition may be the one within.
In the final three episodes, the journey deepens into a powerful exploration of culture, survival, and science at the planet’s edges. On a remote Pacific island threatened by rising seas, Will Smith joins Dr. Walworth and John Aini to document a dying language spoken by only five people, turning marine research into an intimate race against time to preserve human memory. The mission reveals how climate change erodes not just coastlines, but identities. The adventure then shifts to extremes of land and ice. In the Kalahari Desert, Will learns survival from the San people, confronting the limits of his endurance during a traditional hunt with guide Kane Motswana. The odyssey culminates beneath the ice of the North Pole, where, alongside polar ecologist Allison Fong, a daring dive to collect critical samples is jeopardized by a sudden storm and equipment failure. What follows is a gripping test of courage and teamwork that redefines heroism at the end of a 100-day quest.
A series of untimely deaths connected to the making of the Poltergeist films inspired rumours that the production was cursed. Supernatural suspicions are stoked by rumours that real human skeletons were used during the making of the film.
