A new film Oceans that “captures the marine world like never before” and supported by the European Space Agency (ESA) will be premiered on 27th of January 2010.

The epic feature-length film, directed by Jacques Perrin and Jacques Cluzaud with music composed by Bruno Coulais, looks at the ocean using ESA equipment.

“The images that Jacques Perrin has brought together in his film are a hymn to life and to the ocean, the source of all life, the regulator of our climate and the guardian of diversity. Outer space is a privileged place from which to observe, understand and verify the way our oceans are evolving on a truly planetary scale. Ocean and Space, two dimensions still largely unknown, hold at one and the same time the secrets of our origins and of our future.”
