New Zealand From Above The West Coast and Northern South Island
The Wild West coast boasts a pristine environment of rain forest, glaciers and fast flowing rivers. Like Fiordland in Episode 1 the West Coast has also been awarded World Heritage Park status. We crossover to the East coast and see the whales feeding before flying to the city of Christchurch and onto the Northern region of the South Island.
New Zealand From Above presents an aerial journey of New Zealand, flying from the deep south of the South Island to the northern tip of the North Island. A co-production between Bearcage, Making Movies (NZ) and Gebruderbeetz (Germany), this five episode documentary series reveals the natural beauty of New Zealand, and its astonishing diversity of landscapes, while introducing us to the colourful locals who talk about their work, interests and culture.
