Synopsis

Watermark est un documentaire qui nous entraîne aux quatre coins du monde afin d’explorer notre relation avec la ressource la plus importante de la planète : l’eau. À travers différentes histoires et de multiples paysages somptueux, le documentaire évoque de manière inédite l’empreinte de l’eau sur la planète. Il met l’accent sur l’impact négatif de l’homme, qui, en « maltraitant » ce bien fondamental, hypothèque de manière irréversible le futur de nos enfants et de l’humanité toute entière.

En pleine savane africaine, au sud-est du Burkina Faso, à l'abri dans leur tour de plusieurs mètres de haut, les termites sont au travail… lorsqu'un drame vient bouleverser leur vie bien ordonnée. Une pluie tropicale diluvienne va inonder galeries et chambres de la termitière éventrée. Non loin de là, une colonne de terribles fourmis magnans, carnassières, se prépare à l'attaque. Elles vont profiter de la fragilité de la tour des termites pour mener un véritable assaut. Une guerre sans merci va faire rage…

Dans le film, on montre comment le monde du vin a rapidement compris l'enjeu de cette agriculture, la perte de la notion de terroir s'y faisant ressentir plus vivement que dans les autres productions agricoles. Les vignerons élaborent leurs vins avec une minutie particulière, dans les vignes comme à la cave; c'est un métier où chaque détail a son importance. Ils s'interrogent sur la compréhension de la nature par l'homme.

From 1957 to 1978, scientists secretly removed bone samples from over 21,000 dead Australians as they searched for evidence of the deadly poison, Strontium 90 - a by-product of nuclear testing. Silent Storm reveals the story behind this astonishing case of officially sanctioned 'body-snatching'. Set against a backdrop of the Cold War, the saga follows celebrated scientist, Hedley Marston, as he attempts to blow the whistle on radioactive contamination and challenge official claims that British atomic tests posed no threat to the Australian people. Marston's findings are not only disputed, he is targeted as 'a scientist of counter-espionage interest'.
