SUMMARY:Blue Whales: Return of the Giants Premieres at the AutoNation® IMAX® 3D Theater at the Museum of Discovery and Science
DESCRIPTION:The AutoNation® IMAX® 3D Theater at the Museum of Discovery and Science (MODS) will premiere Blue Whales: Return of the Giants starting on January 26\, 2024. The first giant-screen film on the subject\, Blue Whales\, was produced by Oceanic Films in collaboration with Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Tangled Bank Studios and SK Films and funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). MODS is one of only a few Florida theaters with screens large enough to display life-sized blue whales. \nBlue Whales: Return of the Giants introduces audiences to the endangered species\, which is not widely understood despite its status as the largest animal to have ever existed. Through two scientific expeditions\, the film shows stunning footage of blue whale feeding habits\, long-distance communication and mother-calf relationships. One expedition focuses on the search for a missing blue whale population off the coast of the Seychelles Islands in the Indian Ocean while the other expedition joins marine biologist Diane Gendron\, also known as the “Blue Whale Whisperer\,” in the Gulf of California to observe whale families. \nNarrated by award-winning actor Andy Serkis\, scored by Academy Award-winner Steven Price\, and presented in 3D\, Blue Whales will immerse audiences in the ocean alongside the massive blue whales and other species such as dolphins\, sperm whales\, sea lions and orcas. \nThe documentary also features research from local marine biologist Jeremy Kiszka\, professor of biology at Florida International University in Miami\, Florida. Dr. Kiszka studies the ecology and behavior of cetaceans (whales and dolphins) in tropical marine ecosystems around the globe\, particularly in the Caribbean\, along the coasts of Florida and in the Indian Ocean. \nTo view the trailer\, please visit BlueWhalesfilm.com. \nThe AutoNation® IMAX® Theater at the Museum of Discovery and Science is located at 401 SW 2nd Street in Fort Lauderdale. Blue Whales: Return of the Giants is included in the MODS Discovery Pass\, an all-in-one ticket that includes Museum exhibitions\, live science demonstrations and one IMAX documentary film. For tickets\, please visit mods.org/tickets and for showtimes\, please visit mods.org/showtimes.
