The documentary describes the technological progress of the last decades applied to marine research. In addition to the extreme richness and beauty of nature, the images also show signs of human activity: mysterious wrecks, archaeological finds and, unfortunately, waste and abandoned fishing gear. The documentary was shot in 2021 largely in Sicily, where the ISPRA research ship Astrea was moored in the port of Syracuse.
