Volcanoes of the Deep Sea
In search of fossils, IMAX takes you miles below the surface to the bottom of the ocean where life is discovered surviving without sunlight amongst toxic gases and temperatures hot enough to melt lead. See how hydrothermal energy, volcanic chimneys, hydrogen sulfide, chemosynthesis, bacteria, tubeworms, shrimp, and crabs work together in a unique symbiotic community. The film is fascinating.
Alien gives it 2 ½ “deep sea vent food web” stars out of 4.
