"Aliens of the Sea" - Review by Louise Keller

A magical and breathtaking experience, watching Aliens of The Sea is like snorkeling in your lounge room. Just as Microcosmos dazzled us with the world's minute creatures, Aliens of The Sea bewitches us with the wonder of nature's extraordinary sea life.

Many of the creatures we meet look as though they could have come out of a child's imagination and sculpted in plasticine or came off a fancy dress parade. Vivid colours and exotic shapes of creatures you could only dream about are beautifully photographed, while we listen to soothing strains of musical harmonies. As the title implies, this world beneath, filled with diverse and complex elements, must surely be the inspiration for spaceships, innovative design and imbues with the sensation of calm. The beautiful living corals, the thick lipped fish with a soulful expressions, the multi-coloured creatures that slink, flip and glide in the calm of this silent watery world – we can only gasp in amazement and humbly feel grateful that we too are a part of this wondrous world.

This is a superb production that inspires and fascinates. There's a new discovery every single second: I was mesmerized from start to finish. An oasis in this frenetic world of speed and stress, Aliens of the Sea is a must for anyone with a curiosity about life. Congratulations to Pawel Achtel on this remarkable achievement! But don't take my word, see it for yourself!
