Synopsis

Boteti: The Returning River

After years of extreme drought, the Boteti river in Botswana has finally returned in all its glory. This film documents the extraordinary shift in the ecosystem and the dramatic changes it brings to the resident animals.

Wonders of the Sea

The ocean depths are explored with the aid of a submarine chamber of Williamson's invention and a few hardy souls. The construction of the device is examined; but most of the footage is given to plant and animal life, a girl swimming among the coral growths, and two divers who encounter a moray and an octopus.
