Arctic Odyssey (Wt)

Distributor Giant Screen Films
Producer Giant Screen Films, Yes/No Productions and D3D Cinema
Film Director's Name Luke Cresswell & Steve McNicholas
Release Date Winter 2026-27
Film Lengths 40min & 20min
Synopsis ARCTIC ODYSSEY (WT) is a cinematic journey to the remote Siberian Yupik communities of Savoonga and Gambell in the heart of the Bering Sea. Produced in partnership with these ice-dependent Indigenous villages exactly 50 years after University of Alaska filmmakers first documented life on their island, the film reunites past and present. Young hunters and children from decades ago — now elders — reflect on shifting traditions that shape Yupik identity and on changing sea ice that influences wildlife migration patterns critical for survival, especially those of walruses.
Directed by Luke Cresswell and Steve McNicholas, the Academy Award–nominated team behind Pulse: a STOMP Odyssey, Great White Shark, and Wild Ocean, and supported by the National Science Foundation, the film features extraordinary walrus footage by Maxim Arbugaev of Haulout. The film blends powerful human stories, massive walrus gatherings, restored archival footage, Indigenous music, artistic animation, and stunning photography into an immersive celebration of the faraway north.

Einstein’s Incredible Universe

Distributor Cosmic Picture
Producer Cosmic Picture
Film Director's Name Daniel Ferguson
Release Date 1-Mar-27
Film Lengths 40
Synopsis Black holes, the Big Bang, space that can bend and ripple—so much of our understanding of the cosmos comes from Albert Einstein’s radical ideas about gravity.

Designed and conceived for the largest screens in our galaxy, Einstein’s Incredible Universe takes audiences on a spellbinding journey through space and time, and into Einstein’s imagination during some of his most famous thought experiments.

The film tells the stories of two contemporary astrophysicists—Andrea Ghez (2020 Nobel Laureate) and Nergis Mavalvala (Dean of Science at MIT)—who were inspired by Einstein growing up and are now building on his theories in ways that would have astonished even him. Featuring stunning footage of the 2017 and 2024 total solar eclipses—nearly a century after astronomers used a similar eclipse to prove Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity—Einstein’s Incredible Universe will fire the imaginations of audiences everywhere.

Ocean Giants

Distributor Giant Screen Films
Producer Giant Screen Films, Saint Thomas Productions & D3D Cinema
Film Director's Name Myles Connolly
Release Date Fall 2026
Film Lengths 40min & 20min
Synopsis Blue whales were thought to be the largest animals to ever live, but in 2020, a 12-year-old British girl named Ruby Reynolds, hiking with her father, discovered the bones of a leviathan near the same cliffs made famous by young fossil hunter Mary Anning over two centuries ago. The scale of Ruby’s new ichthyosaur species, christened Ichthyotitan, rivaled the size of the largest known whales, and her discovery was only the beginning.

In 2025, scientists in the remote northern Canadian Rockies unearthed an even more titanic ichthyosaur—a gargantuan fossil locked in bedrock underneath a raging river. With GSF’s cameras rolling alongside Ruby and her father, OCEAN GIANTS captures an inspirational, mind-blowing discovery poised to set the paleontology world abuzz.

Directed by Myles Connolly, the film offers a kindred sequel to T. REX— a young explorer making profound fossil discoveries, science mentorship, and massive Mesozoic beasts brought life in dazzling CGI.

Synopsis Mexico’s Gulf of California is one of the most spectacular marine ecosystems on Earth—so rich in life that Jacques Cousteau called it “the world’s aquarium.”

Pacific Oasis follows the lives of three iconic residents—sea lions, dolphins, and killer whales—joined by a cast of strange and wonderful marine creatures. At the heart of this vibrant ecosystem are its smallest but most vital inhabitants: plankton, the microscopic organisms that sustain it all.

We explore Cabo Pulmo, a once-depleted reef now thriving through community-led conservation, offering hope and a model for protecting more of the Gulf. Guiding us is local marine biologist Karla Rodriguez, whose deep knowledge and passion illuminate this remarkable ocean world. Come with us and dive into the world’s richest sea—a journey of wonder and resilience from director Hugh Pearson, creator of the multiple award-winning Blue Whales: Return of the Giants.
