A series of films from all over the world about our astonishing planet and the creatures that live on it

The birds of Australasia include some whose plumage is among the most beautiful in the world, some with unique methods of incubation, and others whose ways of courtship are incredibly complex. The behaviour of a few even suggests that birds have an aesthetic sense.

Two British musicians had the audacity to imagine they could interpret the 'folk' music of Latin America - and were right!

This film was made by an Anglo-Argentine film director. Inspired by the folk music, it gives a visual impression of Argentina, and of the sea journey when Dorita y Pepe made a return visit to the country whose musical ambassadors they have become.
