- An opulent cinematic journey through one of the world's most beautiful countries. From the icy, snowy world of the high mountains with their mighty glaciers, thunderous waterfalls, and raging mountain streams; through the last primeval forests to the warm steppe lake, this documentary follows the trail of water--the element that has shaped this country's diverse nature like no other. Water is not only the basis of all life, it has also given Austria some of Europe's most spectacular natural wonders. In deep forests, ducklings jump from tall trees to learn how to swim; in inaccessible gorges a prototype of trout has survived; and in raging wild rivers, the world's oldest vertebrate has survived for millions of years. All this is captured in intoxicating images that bring the audience at home up close to the experience of nature and wildlife.
- The Alps, the so called "Roof of Europe", stand for wild mountains, extreme lives, but also a magical world. This majestic mountain range connects eight countries and reaches heights of up to 4,000 metres above sea level. At a length of 1,200 kilometres, the Alps form both a connecting bridge between western and eastern Europe and a high barrier between southern and central Europe. The mountains act as a mighty water reservoir and continental watershed, feeding innumerable rivers that flow into three different big seas. Many peaks steeped in legend and history, such as the Matterhorn, the Grossglockner or the highest of them all, the Mount Blanc, tower above a sea of snow and ice-covered heights. Vast river valleys and huge forests cover giant areas, and craggy summits and rugged canyons dot the landscape. Despite extreme local weather conditions and the rapidly changing climatic circumstances at different times of the year, a diverse animal world was able to develop, which has adapted perfectly to its habitat. Eurasian lynx, griffon vulture, ibex and marmot are exposed to extreme seasonal fluctuations, from fleeting thunderstorms and landslides in summer to avalanches and frozen winter temperatures. The 2-part nature documentary provides insights into their lives in impressive images and shows the unbelievable variety of landscapes, flora and fauna that make the Alps a unique natural treasure in the heart of Europe.
