Know more about Ocean, a documentary by David Attenborough

Veteran British broadcaster David Attenborough is the world’s most trusted storyteller, bringing not only passion and truth but also a rare personal connection to everything he touches — something that is evident in his latest documentary, “Ocean with David Attenborough”, say the filmmakers behind the project. The National Geographic film, described by the team as Attenborough’s most personal yet, explores the story of the ocean through the lens of a man whose life has paralleled the rise of marine science. For directors Keith Scholey, Colin Butfield, and Toby Nowlan, and executive producer Enric Sala, one thing is clear — the documentary wouldn’t exist without the 99-year-old legend. Without David, there’s no film. There’s no two ways about it. This is a challenging subject which has to happen. David has always told people the truth and he has universal trust. “To have a person of his stature to be able to tell this story, it is so important to get it funded in the first place, and then get it on cinema screens, and then to the world,” Scholey said in an interview.
