The Ocean at Night

52' (ENG, GER)

At dusk, the ocean becomes a dynamic network of life.

Sharks hunt in large packs, guided not by sight but by vibration. Stingrays detect the electrical signals of their prey, while ambush predators lie hidden in sand or darkness. Each creature follows its own rhythm, each with its own story. The Ocean's diversity is astonishing. Mantis shrimp perceive a spectrum beyond our imagination, octopuses shift form and color, and fish can change sex within minutes. Corals spawn under moonlight, while tiny larval creatures rise from the depths. Strange and beautiful animals animate the darkness, from the expressive Wonderpus to flashing cuttlefish. Alongside these smaller dramas, giants emerge. Blue whales feed, sharks track blood, and dolphins coordinate complex hunts, displaying intelligence, power, and cooperation. THE OCEAN AT NIGHT is the result of over a decade of underwater filming across Indonesia, the Philippines, the Maldives, the Caribbean, and the Eastern Pacific, capturing behaviors never before seen.
