Živá voda, živý svet
A nature documentary about the sustainability of contemporary riverbank habitats... In the past, we were surrounded by vast river worlds. All living creatures came together in the richest and ever-changing environment of lowland rivers. The freedom of river basins is now a thing of the past. We have also shackled the Danube landscape. We dammed the flow, cut off the side arms, fortified the banks, and drained the wetlands. Water can no longer bring new nutrients to the land. This also negatively affects the fate of golden bee-eaters, playful sandpipers, and wet-footed fishermen.

Gottesanbeterinen – Meister der Tarnung
No one in nature has mastered the art of deception like mantises. These seemingly innocent creatures are among the most feared predators in the insect world. Find out how they live, how they breed and who their biggest enemies are... They're killers. They kill their prey with incredible precision. They fight kung-fu style and are considered a symbol of vigilance in Japan. Who are they? Mantises, of course. They have an unmistakable, uniquely bendable head in the shape of a triangle. Two large eyes unerringly measure their prey. The thoracic part of their body is greatly elongated and studded with sharp protrusions that can stab an unfortunate victim with the speed of a switchblade. Mantises have a reputation for being stealthy creatures, especially as they are rarely seen. They are perfectly adapted to their environment, whether moving among leaves, flowers, tree bark, sandy soil or even flowering orchids.

In the south are large pockets of untouched wilderness where extraordinary animals flourish and Koreans continue to practice age-old traditions in tandem with the seasons and with nature.
