The Big Blue cult hit charts the competition and friendship between Jacques and Enzo first in their youth and then when they meet again at the World Free Diving Championships in Sicily years later. Their rivalry reignited, the pair spur each other on to deeper and deadlier dives. Besson's first English language production is a story of extremes; of love and solitude, friendship and rivalry, life and death.
A journey into the depths of the ocean, Atlantis is director Luc Besson's triumphal, awe-inspiring celebration of the beauty and wonder of the world beneath the sea. Expanding on themes he explored in his international hit The Big Blue, Besson and his regular collaborators composer Eric Serra and cinematographer Christian Petron travel the globe to capture the grace and beauty of such diverse aquatic wildlife as Australian great white sharks, giant manta rays, Bahamian dolphins and sea snakes in the Seychelles.
Divided into thematic movements and akin to a great marine Baraka, it serves not so much as a documentary than as a meditative journey into the big blue. Thrilling, lyrical and mysterious, Atlantis transports us to a world beyond words, the savagery and beauty of which will haunt your memory long after the film ends.
