Florida's Golf Coast

Jan 19, 2023

Famous beaches, fascinating lagoon landscapes, and sunshine practically all year round. Florida's west coast is a true paradise. Along the Gulf of Mexico, the numerous river deltas harbor a wide variety of plants and animals. Possibly the most characteristic species of the region is the manatee. They are curious and rarely afraid of humans. In the shallow waters around the lagoon town of Crystal River, you can even swim with these enormous animals. This documentary takes us to visit the smallest post office in the USA, with recipients in the middle of nature, to meet the legendary, but noisy, swamp boats in the Everglades, and to delve into the world of the famous sponge hunters.

Adventure Everglades 3D - The Manatees of Crystal River

Sep 17, 2012

The Everglades of Florida abduct us into an alien world. The phenomenon of an endless, flat, water surface produces a rich and beautiful flora and fauna. The abundance of fish provides food for countless species of birds and the boss of all swamps: alligators - gigantic, primeval reptiles as neighbours of the people that live here. However, the main goal of this journey is to find the Florida manatees. They are regarded as the most serene and gentle animals in the world. Year for year, they migrate up the rivers from the Gulf of Mexico. It is only here, at the pleasantly warm springs, where one can experience this comparatively unknown and extremely threatened species first hand. They move their stately bodies astonishingly graceful, as if they were dancers in an underwater ballet. Magical light effects of the sun enable a backdrop of turquoise coloured water and roots to shine brilliantly. All in magical 3D.

A Greater Society

Sep 17, 2018

It’s the 2014 midterms and residents of a South Florida retirement community feel the weight of democracy on their shoulders. In one of the most influential counties of America’s largest swing state, these political kingmakers trade their golf clubs for clipboards and hit the pavement to get out the vote. A GREATER SOCIETY is a feature documentary to inspire voter turnout. Inside the gates of Wynmoor Village are three miles of manicured lawns lined with palm trees, a golf course, and carefully maintained condominiums. At first glance, it’s just another retirement community where elders go to enjoy their golden years relaxing by the pool and taking ceramics classes; but look further and you’ll see that the people who live in this community share something unique: the power to have a real impact on national politics.
