Na Zem spadne vesmírna sonda a prinesie so sebou nebezpečný mikroorganizmus, ktorý počas pár hodín vyhladí obyvateľov malého mestečka. V sonde je objavený neznámy mikroorganizmus, vedci ho nazvú Andromeda. Po nejakej dobe zistia, že Andromeda rozkladá zdravú krv čo vysvetľuje ako zomreli ľudia v onej malej dedine a tiež aj ako mohli niektorí prežiť. Tiež, ale zistia, že pomerne rýchlo mutuje a behom pár dní je pre človeka neškodný, avšak začne rozkladať všetky plastické hmoty, z ktorých sa tiež skladá časť laboratória. Po narušení izolácie počítač spustí autodeštrukciu, aby zabránil úniku látky mimo laboratória. Vedci musia autodeštrukciu vypnúť ak chcú prežiť, ale počítač je dobre chránený ...
David Attenborough nám približuje evolučnú teóriu veľkého anglického vedca, ktorá zásadným spôsobom zmenila pohľad na svet a na miesto, ktoré v ňom zaberá človek. Sir David Attenborough, popularizátor vedy známy a obľúbený na celom svete, je určite tou pravou osobou, ktorá televíznym divákom môže presvedčivým spôsobom priblížiť teóriu Charlesa Darwina. Jeho jedinečné myšlienky zásadne zmenili spôsob, akým sa väčšina ľudstva pozerá na svet. Vďaka nim sme pochopili, prečo existuje toľko rôznych druhov a ako sa rozšírili po celej Zemi. Vďaka nim môžeme predvídať dôsledky zasahovania do prirodzených spoločenstiev prírody a vďaka im sme tiež pochopili, že ľudia nestoja bokom prírodného sveta. Ako ostatné živé tvory sme aj my jeho súčasťou a náš život sa odohráva podľa jeho pravidiel a zákonitostí.
Kombinacia humoru s vaznostou, nevinnosti s mudrostou. Africky sprievodca filmom pouziva vypravny jazyk mytov a baji, aby nam predstavil zrodenie vesmiru a hviezd, vybusne zaciatky nasej planety a vznik zivota na Zemi. Rozprava o case, hmote, zrodeni, laske a smrti. Po siestich rokoch usilovnej prace prichadza druhy opus od scenaristov-reziserov snimky Mikrokozmos.
Blob, alebo záhadná "mysliaca" hmota - je predmetom skúmania vedcov - biológov - už po dlhé roky. Autori tohto dokumentu sa vám snažia priblížiť najnovšie zistenia výskumníkov, zaoberajúci sa touto organickou hmotou, ktorá udivuje odborný svet. Táto slizká protoplazma, ktorá má charakteristické rysy rastlín i živočíchov, pôsobí ako mimozemský organizmus - keďže sa prejavuje inteligentným správaním - napriek absencii mozgu. Film sa nakrúcal na troch kontinentoch a tvorcovia sledovali prácu amerických, európskych a japonských expertov....

This is a story about you. A tale about the inside of your body... According to a new study, the human body consists of approximately 37 trillion cells. These cells are hard at work every day within a world that is your body. From the oxygen-carrying red blood cells to the bacteria-fighting white blood cells, get to know the unsung heroes and the drama that unfolds inside of you! It's the oddly relatable and interesting story that is the life of cells!
Experience our planet's natural beauty and examine how climate change impacts all living creatures in this ambitious documentary of spectacular scope.
The story of life, from the first primitive cells to the plants and animals that now live around us.
Alcohol, smoking, and stress—in the body subjected to these irritants, the cells responsible for maintaining life seem to fight a war that never ends. Due to a severe shortage of workers, Red Blood Cell AA2153 has to quickly learn to deliver oxygen and collect carbon dioxide, even in dangerous conditions. Meanwhile, White Blood Cell U-1196 has to do her part by dealing with germs and viruses during life-threatening situations. In the midst of these crises, they have to work together to keep the body healthy, despite not knowing if their sacrifices will be worthwhile. Cells at Work! Code Black takes a different approach by showing the grittier side of the jobs our cells perform.

Anatomy for Beginners is a television show created by Gunther von Hagens. In this 4-part series, Dr Gunther von Hagens and Professor John Lee demonstrated the anatomical structure and workings of the body. The 4 episodes were screened in the United Kingdom on Channel 4 in 2005. The show features public anatomy demonstrations with the use of real human cadavers and live nude models, carried out at Gunther von Hagens' "Institute for Plastination" in Heidelberg, Germany. Dr von Hagens’ public demonstrations are not formal anatomy dissections performed by medical students in some countries as part of their medical training. Formal dissection are performed slowly and take dozens of hours of dissection. Anatomy for Beginners performs quicker autopsy and also combines with demonstration of plastinated body parts and specimens to gives just a glimpse of the human anatomy. The individuals on whom the demonstration was performed had, before their death, enrolled on von Hagens’ body donor programme and consented to the use of their bodies for public education in anatomy, including public demonstration.
