The Humboldt Current: Where Ocean and Desert Collide

The Humboldt Current follows the powerful cold-water flow that runs along South America's Pacific coast and shapes life from ocean to desert. The film traces its journey from Antarctic waters, showing how it feeds one of the richest marine ecosystems on Earth while creating some of its driest lands. Its 4K photography captures the dramatic meeting of sea and shore. Fascinating and beautiful, it reveals how a single current drives an entire web of life. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
