经过四十亿年的漫长演变，地球变成一个物种繁多、资源丰富、奇特美丽的蓝色星球。然而自人类出现以来，我们只用了二十万年的时间，便将地球的宝贵资源消耗殆尽。珍稀物种灭绝，原始资源奇缺，污染日益严重，人类以及地球的明天将何去何从？ 导演扬恩•亚瑟经过15年的筹备，历访50多个国家拍成此片。本片素材长达488小时，拍摄周期为21个月，共动用88,000名员工，从澳洲海底的大堡礁到非洲肯亚高原的乞力马扎罗山；从亚玛逊热带雨林到戈壁沙漠；从美国德萨斯州连绵不断的棉花田到中国上海、深圳的工业城镇。影片以上帝的俯瞰视角向世人展现地球的绝美以及日趋危急的现状。明天并不遥远，但我们该选择怎样的未来？
EP01 THE VANISHED CITY OF THE PHARAOH 皮拉美西斯（Piramesse），古埃及首都，由法老拉美西斯二世（Ramesses the Great）于3000年前建成。当这座失落的城市被发现时，考古学家感觉相当困惑，因为拉美西斯二世根本不可能在此处建城。本片重现了古埃及以及早期考古学家活动的场景，让我们跟随现代考古学家Manfred Bietak与Edgar Pusch的脚步，看他们如何解释皮拉美西斯消失的原因以及为什么数千年后它会出现在错误的地方。 EP02 THE CURSED VALLEY OF THE PYRAMIDS 在秘鲁北部兰巴耶克（Lambeyeque）山谷中，有将近250座用泥砖兴建的金字塔。很久以前兰巴耶克人存在着莫明的恐惧，他们认为建造金字塔是他们存活的关键。在一座名为Tucume的城市中，26座金字塔并排耸立，这是这个文明消失以前最后建造的金字塔，也是整个文明的顶峰。 是什么样的恐惧让这里的人们建造了如此多的金字塔，它们有什么样的功用，为什么整个文明突然之间消失？考古学家在废墟中发现了大量活祭的牺牲者，跟随这些线索，Tucume城的黑暗历史展现在我们眼前。 EP03 THE DARK LORDS OF HATTUSHA 赫梯（Hittite）是位于小亚细亚的文明古国，崛起于公元前2000年，最初是由讲赫梯语的赫梯人和迁来的讲涅西特语的涅西特人组成。公元前15世纪末至前13世纪中叶的新王国时期是赫梯王国最强盛的时期，这一时期编制了《赫梯法典》。在国王苏庇路里乌玛一世统治时期，赫梯摧毁了由胡里特人建立的米坦尼王国，攻占了米坦尼王国的首都瓦努坎尼，扶持了傀儡国王。他自己的儿子也成为其他一些小国的国王。 赫梯在新王国时期在叙利亚同埃及进行了争霸战争。霍连姆赫布、拉美西斯一世、塞提一世、拉美西斯二世这些埃及第19王朝前期的法老们同赫梯进行了激烈的争夺。交战双方在卡德什（Kadesh）战役中受到惨重损失。在赫梯新王哈图西里二世执政时，赫梯同埃及的拉美西斯二世在公元前1283年缔结了和约。公元前1246年，国王哈图西里三世采取和亲政策，将自己的一个女儿嫁给埃及的拉美西斯法老。后来发现于埃及卡纳克庙宇墙上的一幅雕刻，就描绘了当时埃及法老迎娶赫梯公主的情景。 公元前13世纪末，“海上民族”席卷了东部地中海地区，赫梯王国亦被其肢解。公元前8世纪，残存的赫梯王国被亚述帝国所灭。 1834年，法国人查里·特克思尔发现了消失已久的赫梯王国首都汉梯沙（Hattusha）。如今考古学家已经从这里发掘出许多遗迹，包括坚固的城墙、秘密隧道、神庙、宫殿、一座大型的仿金字塔建筑以及古代世界最大的图书馆之一。 本片重现了失落的赫梯王国，讲述赫梯王国兴起至毁灭的全过程。

From the "socialization of suffering" to peace in the Basque Country: with extraordinary access to the principal players, this is the story of a 10 year process, which began with secret talks in a Gipuzkoan farmhouse and ended - after moments of hope and painful disappointments - with the broad anti-terrorist strategy that brought an end to the violence of ETA, increasingly rejected en masse by Spanish and Basque society, and isolated after their radical nationalist supporters opted for peace. -IMDB
一名女子声称在曼哈顿的卧室里被绑架。这部纪录片系列探讨了这是否是一个精心设计的骗局，还是外星生命的证据。
Every year in France, 92,000 people are placed under psychiatric care without their consent. By law, the hospital has 12 days to bring each patient before a judge. Based on medical records and a doctor’s recommendations, a crucial decision has to be made – will the patient stay or leave? 12 DAYS after which lives can change forever.
Massive machines require engineering extremes. The massive man-made satellite, commonly known as the International Space Station, hurtling around the Earth at 27,600 km an hour, has been a temporary home for humans for the last 20 years. The biggest land vehicle on earth, a bucket excavator titled Bagger 293, that can move 240,000 cubic meters of dirt each day. Innovation has always meant building bigger, faster, taller, longer and stronger than anything that came before. We’ve seen them in dramatic visual fashion. But how do these actually work? What sets each machine apart. What big ideas drove its evolution and what limitations did this machine overcome? What forces was it built to withstand and where is the breaking point? Using CGI and expert insights, we ‘strip down’ the design of some of the world’s unique colossal machines and reveal mechanical secrets that not only made them work, but also changed the world in a big way! Each episode explores four incredible machines, linked thematically. From sea and space faring designs, to mega airborne, mining and industrial machines, we’ll break down what they can do as well as key inner mechanics and materials that make it all possible. Dynamic archival footage featuring; slow motion, aerials, and time-lapses get us past the ‘caution’ tape and up close and personal with these compound monsters. CGI provides breakouts and blueprints and a look at hidden mechanisms. Adding expertise of structural, mechanical, chemical and forensic engineers to help reveal what’s at stake when these colossal constructions are put work, and how all the pieces come together to make a big impact.

佛罗里达州威斯特礁以南九十哩处，座落着一个始终保持原貌的加勒比海岛国——古巴。 当其余的加勒比海岛屿在争取观光收入的竞赛中，将丰富的生态资源加以毒害或用作铺路，古巴大致仍处于停滞状态。无论是出于意外或计划，古巴仍是北半球最清净的环境之一，但目前面临重大抉择。许多人认为美国的禁令将会在未来几年内解除，美式消费主义与发展，可能会冲击这个国家。 本集节目将追随科学家与专家前往古巴最原始的环境，披露可能遭受的危害，还有这个群岛如何藉由野生动物与附近整个地区、甚至政治对手美国相连系。古巴接下来的变化可能影响世人。
