In the remote volcanic archipelago of the Crozet Islands, meet David Reichert, a cameraman who has an extraordinary talent to locate, approach, and tame some of the wildest beasts on Earth.Enduring raging winds and icy waters with minimal protection, he enters the intimacy of elephant seals and orcas using clever ethological analyses and gets them used to his presence. Then comes the extraordinary: meet a man who communicates with penguins with body language, calms young seals and turns them into live pillows, lies underwater with eight-ton orcas or mature male seals, and so much more.
