When the polar lights of summer cover the ice landscape, the animals in the Antarctic are in a paradise. Whales blow their meter-high fountains towards the sky, penguins fly like small rockets in the water, seals dive for crabs under the glittering ice floes. The Ross Sea is one of the last areas where the magic of the ice continent can still be experienced. The film approaches this unique region via the sub-Antarctic islands of New Zealand. Here life is blooming, here it is green and free of ice. This is what Antarctica could have looked like before the continent split off from the supercontinent Gondwana 180 million years ago and drifted towards the South Pole. The transformation is part of its essence, its biological diversity has remained to this day. From the Ross Sea bay to the ice shelf, from the huge penguin colonies to steaming volcanoes - each station opens a world full of surprises and full of life in rhythm with the ice. But slowly the consequences of climate change are also becoming apparent on the Ross Sea. While some species are dying, others are spreading. They could bring new viruses and bacteria with them, and new dangers for humans too. The structure of nature has gotten off course. How many generations will still be able to experience the magic of Antarctica?

Three renowned nature photographers document the behavior of three charismatic animal species for National Geographic. Steve Winter installed a photo trap in front of the metropolis of Mumbai to shoot a picture of a leopard on its next foray into town - about 40 of these big cats live in the nearby Sanjay Gandhi National Park. Tim Laman draws attention to the situation of Orang Utans on Borneo by shooting touching pictures of these animals, whose habitats are endangered because more and more rain forest is cleared to make room for oil palm plantations. One of those pictures, for example, is an ape baby reaching for its mother's hand. And underwater photographer Brian Skerry shoots photos of white sharks in front of Cape Cod on the US east coast. They come there more often because their prey, the gray seals, has increased in number. Three men, three missions, one goal: These photographers want to help with their work to better protect these species - especially in places that pit them against the interests of mankind.
