March of the Penguins


Watch Trailer

Introduction and discussion with Oscar-winning filmmaker Luc Jacquet after the screening.

Emperor penguins overcome formidable obstacles to return to their breeding grounds for mating season in this Oscar-winning film by Luc Jacquet. It tells the story of one year in the life of a flock – focusing on one couple in particular – as they trek across the Antarctic on a journey that invokes almost every major life experience: from birth to death, from dating to mating, from comedy to tragedy, and from love to fighting for survival. 2006 Oscar Winner for Best Documentary Film.
