Beginning its tumultuous journey as an ominous sandstorm in Senegal, heading west across the Atlantic to toss enormous ships and waves topsy-turvy, then crashing into the jungles of the Caribbean, we live inside this hurricane, and it is truly awesome, scary and incredible. Ants, lizards, bats, frogs, horses, homeless men, rivers, ocean reefs, the US Gulf coast - all bend before the power of this monsoon turned magnificent. We see it from space, we see it through the eyes of animals, from the operations' rooms of the emergency agencies meant to warn us and help us cope - and we see it from the ground as it explodes and unleashes its fury upon us.

Around the Crozet Islands, here is the incredible odyssey of a family of Sperm Whales facing rapid changes in their environment.

Once victim of whale hunting, now accused of stealing fish, a sperm whale shares its private life with us. And what an immersion! We discover in turn its mysterious sonar, its competitors like orcas, and also the strange world of its neighbors - the deep-sea monsters.

Following the destiny of a young female caracal in exile, this documentary constructs an unexpected tale of an extraordinary fate: clumsy and awkward in the savannas of northern South Africa, the naive feline discovers the suburbs of Cape Town through its wanderings. Along the way, we become attached to this little-known animal endowed with keen senses and capable of extraordinary leaps...which it puts to use to adapt to an environment shaped by humans. The feline learns to hunt rabbits on a golf course or rats in barns. She delights in a seal carcass washed up by the ocean in a cove and even dog pâté in a suburban home. Braving the dangers of larger predators and automobile traffic, she joins the ranks of some sixty caracals that live solitary lives in the shadow of our society. Yet suburbanites sometimes cross paths with them and share their encounters on social media. Thanks to observations recorded in the most famous of these (the "Urban Caracal Project"), the film crew was able to follow for over 2 years the ghostly appearances of these felines in totally unexpected environments. By choosing the form of a tale, the director offers a story as timeless as it is highly symbolic of the behavioral plasticity of many animals forced to adapt to our galloping urbanization.

Today, space debris has become the nightmare of telecommunications operators and space agencies. Since the beginning of the conquest of space at the end of the 1950s, the number of spacecraft launches has multiplied. Many of them, now useless, wander above the Earth and sometimes collide. Satellites carrying nuclear charges, stages or tanks of launchers have already fallen back to Earth, without causing any casualties until now. Faced with the danger, space actors are now constantly monitoring the clouds of waste, ready to divert their satellites or installations in an emergency.

The Giant Oarfish, the largest bony fish in the world, was known only by rare examples that died by stranding, as well as one sole fossil. Its extraordinary dimensions, as long as 15 meters, and shape in the form of a silver ribbon, inspired the myth of the sea serpent. For the past two years, scientific buoys, immersed at a depth of two thousand meters in the Mediterranean, off the French Riviera, have attracted countless species of pelagic fish; among them, the Giant Oarfish drifting vertically, alone or by pairs. With the help of the world expert in Giant Oarfish and logistic collaboration of enthusiasts, a scientific expedition reveals the biology of this enigmatic ambassador of the abyss. Entirely shot in Ultra High Definition, the film raises the veil on its paradoxical habits: why do all the adults self-mutilate and rid themselves of two-thirds of their bodies without being affected? How do they meet in the immensity of the ocean? Why does this fish not have any known predators?
