- Three of the world's most promising young scientists in their fields of expertise, together set out to conduct a systematic exploration of the "white frontier." For these people, the "white frontier" is the line of ice separating the world above (the ice field) from the world below (the ocean's depths). Like two separate planets, these worlds are inhabited by different creatures: On one side are beluga, bowhead whales, narwhals, and arctic fish; on the other side are polar bears, seals, and walruses - Yet, these animals are only able to survive by regularly venturing beyond the limits of their own world. These forays across the white frontier are precisely what our heroes aim to study. How do certain mammals break through the ice in order to breathe? How does the polar bear manage to smash the surface to catch fish? How are other animals able to use the meager reserve of air trapped between ice and water? How is the seal able to divide its life between the two sides of the obstacle?

- Power Plants takes us into the world of some extraordinary plants and tells us their story. Far from a dry academic discourse, this series proves that plants do much more than just set the stage for life; in fact, like humans and other animals, they play a very active role in it. Power Plants presents some unusual "plant stars" filmed just as animals might be. The techniques of macrophotography give us an "up close and personal" look at their world, while fast motion photography paints a revealing portrait of their territorial conquests, their fighting and seduction techniques, their double-dealing, and their opportunism. We thus gain firsthand knowledge of the plants' strategies at the level of both individuals and species. The narrative explains how plants adapt to the world around them, but also how they modify it. It stresses their "actions" rather than their appearance or anatomy. In so doing, it treats them like "characters" in their own dramas, highlighting the traits they have in common with humans and other animals and the universe they share with us. For this reason, the stories are deliberately intense, structured as investigations with many dramatic twists and turns.

- Despite indications that it is disappearing, the European badger remains one of Europe's most discreet animals. This burrowing animal, of the Weasel family Mustelidae, is largely unknown to the general public and even to certain people commonly familiar with nature who rely on hearsay to discuss the badger. This foul smelling animal, hence the Mustelidae family, has the reputation of a savage, bloodthirsty beast which has preceded it since the dark ages. But is this an accurate portrayal of this relatively calm omnivore with very pronounced social behavior? Being extremely difficult to film in its natural habitat, the European badger has been the subject of very few documentaries. This complete study permits the presentation of actual facts and not the falsities that have been associated with the badger, such as it being a frightening creature. At the beginning of spring new generations of badger's are born. They have lived in the burrow for two months before coming out for the first time this evening. It is through this family unit and the passing season's with which we will be able to better understand this Mustelidae with its very peculiar habits. Where do they live? What do they eat? How many litters do they have per year? How do they build multi-level fortress they hibernate? A discussion will take place with regards to the American badger, which is also a member of the Mustelidae family. However, the American badger has very different habits and behavior patterns than that of the European badger. The American badger behaves in a very reclusive manner whereas the European badger is the only Mustelidae that is found to live in a family group or clan.
