New French movie “Oceans” not only allows audience to swim among the fish, but opens a skylight on underwater lives packed with emotion and loaded with jeopardy.

It is over fifty time since celebrated French diver and filmmaker Jacques Cousteau shot the documentary “The Silent World” and strict advances have made it easier to capture life from the perspective of a fish, the haze’s directors say.

“We invented all the procedure to be fish with the fish, to witness what we have done to our environment and, when there are big catches or pollution, to see it as the fish see it,” one of directors, Jacques Perrin, told Reuters.

It is more than 10 living since “Microcosmos,” the gift-engaging exploration of the life of insects which Perrin narrated and which provided an eerily close-up look at tiny creatures living in prairie.

Thanks to new camera techniques, “Oceans” allows for jarringly violent shots of spider crab wars, detailed-gradient dolphin chases, portraits of sea creatures caring for their little and wonderfully dreadful oddities such as the Asian sheeps-control wrasse.

“Our tackle do not open with one spectacular nature but with closeness with an animal one has never seen until now and which, just like that, we become close to,” added Perrin.

New methods involve encasing cameras in elite boxes, allowing divers to coast alongside skates or swim shoulder to fin with large sallow sharks.

After two living of preparation, four years of filming and one of control, “Oceans” comes out in France on January 27, a month after the environmental peak in Copenhagen.

Perrin, a supporter of French environmentalist Nicolas Hulot, said he does not feel the hardship to preach but hopes to contribute to the wonder on environmental protection.

“Oceans” was shot in sea sanctuaries over more than 70 expeditions across the world. Some of the covering’s scenes take place in a museum of dead species, made more lingering with the education that the animals died out because of humanity.

“That was the rationale with the dolphin in the Yangtze (brook) which we had designed to film, but the last one disappeared during filming,” said co-director Jacques Cluzaud.

One camera, placed in a “mid air mid-water” ruse, follows a seal as it curiously noses a supermarket trolley on the filthy ocean, then surfaces to take in a grey industrial difficult at the water’s side.

In one outlook, a crook immovable in a trawling net is terrified back into the water, flow violently from where its fin was cut off to be eaten as fluidity. The panting swindler is exposed wandering down to the shady ocean, followed by a column of blood.

Perrin is nevertheless optimistic on the outlook of heap.

“The cry of prospect is stronger than the cry of dread,” Perrin said. “The sea is still creamy, we’ve made it bleed and mutilated it, but it is there and if we want, equipment could twitch anew.”
