Description

Deep beneath the earth’s crust, hundreds of metres or kilometres below the surface, with no light, no air, and very little water, in pores and fissures of hard rock, scientists have found an enormous biodiversity of micro-organisms that thrive in extreme conditions.

The Dark Biosphere challenges everything we thought we knew and challenges us to rethink not only the origin and evolution of life on Earth but its possible existence throughout the Universe.

Reviews

I have seen this show on Fulldome Festival in Brno (2024). It has amazing visuals, sometimes, I could not even tell if it is 3D render or videofootage – from my point of view, this show has one of the best CGI I have ever seen (achived by using photometry and Unreal Engine, if I remember that correctly). English is narrated by absolutely amazing Viggo Mortensen. The topic is definitely not suitable for younger children, but by amazing narration and stunning visuals, this show will definitely amaze even audience, which is not as much interested in the topic.
