For the very first time, an epic motion picture of the entire planet earth. From the makers of Deep Blue comes Earth, the greatest story ever told of our living planet. Every creature on Earth has only one all-encompassing quest: to survive. That is the story of this planet, in all its magnificent variations, under the blazing light and awesome power of the sun. No film has ever captured the immense scope of the drama of Earth, yet told it with heartbreaking and heart warming intimacy of real animal characters. Until now.
EARTH is the second highest nature documentary ion the history of cinema. It is the movie which established Disney’s – Disney Nature brand and was released in a record number of 1.800 screens in the US, setting the opening record for documentary domestically.
Its box office earnings total US$ 140 million, ranking number 1 in a number of territories. In home entertainment it has sold more than 20 million units and it is estimated that more than 1 billion people have watched Earth and its companion TV series Planet Earth around the globe.
