LE MONDE DU SILENCE, the iconic documentary by Jacques-Yves Cousteau and Louis Malle, reveals the breathtaking beauty and diversity of the seas. Using specially developed underwater cameras and accompanied by music from Jean-Michel Cousteau, the film impressively captures the fragile underwater world. This Oscar-winning film encourages reflection on marine conservation and has inspired generations of children to pursue careers as marine biologists.
