Embark on a journey of a lifetime and explore the world of the magnificent blue whale, the largest animal ever to have lived and a species rebounding from the brink of extinction. Blue whales are the largest animals ever to have lived, bigger than any dinosaur, yet we know surprisingly little about them. From its spectacular feeding habits to the surprising role it plays in the health of our oceans, the film provides an unforgettable window into the lives of these animals—and the extremes scientists must endure to study them.

Follow a three-month-old baby whale on a magical journey down one of the Earth’s great ocean highways to discover the incredible world of ocean currents - hidden marine rivers that flow around the Earth. As our young whale goes with the flow of the current on a great migration from the warm tropics to the frozen ice floes of Antarctica, she meets the curious creatures that call the current home, and discovers how the ocean nurtures all life on earth, from the smallest fish...to us.
