Every year, the penguins go on a journey for twenty days to select their mates and make love. After this, the battle with nature begins and while the men stay in the cold to keep the egg warm, the women go on the same journey backwards to get new food for their future kid. | ||||||||

If anybody will ask you which are the most respectful animals in the world, you will definitely answer the penguin after seeing this movie. What an unusual work of art this is. Brought as a tale of humans, for months the animals go through the roughest winter of them all. And all this for a baby that isn't even born yet.
Masterly edited, you feel like you have watched an incredibly romantic movie afterwards. The sweet soundtrack, the humble penguins, the funny notes, all make this an unforgettable documentary. It could have easily been the opposite. And while I know the angry birds in the movie don't growl like tigers, it makes for such a better story. Made by the man who is currently setting up the Disneynature film label, this is an amazing spin between reality and fiction. You can see I'm still a little warm inside. | ||||||||
