This starts with the Mayans and their lost civilization. Narrator Harrison Ford examines the resources connected to New York City and follows the water up the pipe back to the nature reserves which filters and protects the city's water. Nature's bio-diversity cleans and preserves the water. A team of biologists head off to the mountains of Venezuela which is the inspiration for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World. The central theme of this documentary is the connection between the city and nature.
This is a 40 minute documentary probably meant for the IMAX theaters in museums. It has the sweeping vistas and fly-bys that those movies really love. It's connecting the artificial city world with the natural world. It suggests that the city needs nature to survive and wonders about the lost ancient civilizations. It's great to connect the two worlds which often feels disconnected. It's a worthwhile premise which this short does very well.
