Director: Pierre Levie
Belgium, 1969, 95', DCP, color,
English with Turkish subtitles

This unique documentary by Pierre Levie reveals life on land and underwater at the Great Barrier Reef.

Filmed during an expedition lasting over five months, it captures not only the rich oceanic flora and fauna but also the technical equipment used to record these rare, now-vanished images. 

The film’s theatrical score and dynamic editing, combined with Gérard Corbiau’s aesthetic touch, transform scientific observation into a rhythmic narrative.

The film was restored by the Royal Film Archive of Belgium (CINEMATEK) with the support of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation Film Centre.
