Deep beneath the Indian Ocean, a team of explorers embarks on a bold scientific mission to capture one of nature’s rarest survivors — the coelacanth, a fish unchanged for 400 million years. Narrated by David Attenborough, the film follows NHK’s deep-sea crew aboard the OceanX vessel as they attempt the world’s first 72-hour observation of this living fossil. Using cutting-edge submersibles, they descend into an ancient realm where time itself seems frozen. As the cameras reveal the coelacanth’s slow, graceful movements, scientists uncover vital clues about evolution’s greatest leap — the moment life crawled from sea to land. Blending adventure, technology, and breathtaking natural history, this deep-ocean odyssey illuminates how a single fish still holds the key to understanding our own beginnings.
Physicist Jim Al-Khalili embarks on an extraordinary quest through 600 million years of evolution to reveal how the human brain — the most complex structure known in the universe — came to exist. With more than 100 billion neurons and 100 trillion connections, it surpasses even the stars of the Milky Way. Through breathtaking science and striking visuals, this documentary uncovers how nature transformed simple nerve cells into the ultimate thinking machine. From the first survival instincts of primates to the dawn of social intelligence, Jim explores how cooperation, relationships and empathy reshaped the brain and made us who we are. Working alongside his wife and leading researchers, he dives into fossil evidence, brain scans and the rise of artificial intelligence to answer one profound question: what makes the biological brain so unique — and can anything ever match it?
In the last four episodes, Eugene Levy’s journey turns into a celebration of contrast and courage. In the Maldives, he tries to find his sea legs at a luxurious private island resort that promises anything, anytime, anywhere. In South Africa, he experiences a powerful encounter with an elephant that changes the way he sees connection and empathy. In Portugal, he delights in rich Iberian cuisine, uncovering the soul of local traditions. Finally, in Tokyo, he steps into the ring as a sumo referee, embracing the balance between discipline, culture, and humor in a city bursting with life.
In the final two episodes, the chaos reaches a terrifying new scale. The hacker calls in a bomb threat on a plane carrying a Sony executive, forcing an emergency landing, and later brings down PlayStation and Xbox servers on Christmas Day, paralyzing millions of gamers worldwide. After one of the largest healthcare data breaches in history, European authorities working closely with the FBI begin to track their elusive suspect. What follows is an international manhunt that exposes the thin line between youthful defiance and cyberterrorism.
Through interviews with victims, cybersecurity experts, and a former FBI agent, this gripping miniseries dives into the dark frontier of online crime, where a teenage Finnish prodigy transforms into one of the most notorious hackers of his generation. The series exposes the hidden alliances, moral gray zones, and devastating consequences of a digital war waged in silence — where lines blur between rebellion, genius, and destruction. It’s a portrait of a hyper-connected world where a single keyboard can shake governments and ruin lives. In the first two episodes, the hunt starts and intensifies: the FBI infiltrates DEF CON in Las Vegas in search of the elusive figure known as Zeekill. What follows is a chain of chaos as Kivimäki launches false emergency calls that mobilize armed units, turning quiet suburbs in Connecticut into war zones and drawing one FBI agent into a personal nightmare that reveals just how fragile digital order really is.
In 1532, Francisco de Pizarro led fewer than two hundred men into the heart of the Inca Empire and brought a civilization of millions to its knees. What drove this man—from humble beginnings in Spain—to defy impossible odds and confront Atahualpa’s army of 30,000 warriors? Through striking reenactments and expert insight, the film explores how faith, greed, and unyielding ambition collided in one of history’s most shocking encounters, forever changing the fate of two worlds. Beyond the conquest, it delves into the man himself—visionary and tyrant, believer and betrayer—revealing how his thirst for glory became a symbol of both human courage and moral ruin. Set against the breathtaking landscapes of the Andes, this journey exposes the hidden cost of empire: the blood spilled, the cultures erased, and the myths that still echo through the ruins of Cuzco.
