BBC Earth family summer lineup- Tiny Giants and Wings 3D

Ever wondered what the world looks like from the eyes of a chipmunk? Or what it feels like to soar above the Grand Canyon on the wings of an eagle? This summer, you don’t have to wonder. BBC Earth is inviting your family on two unforgettable expeditions from the comfort of your living room with Tiny Giants and Wings, two spectacular new films that will change the way you see the natural world.

Narrated by the charismatic David Tennant (Doctor Who), these family-friendly adventures bring the wonders of the outdoors home in stunning vibrancy. Available in both 2D and immersive 3D, these films are more than just documentaries—they are cinematic experiences designed to captivate, inspire, and leave you breathless.

Think Big by Going Small: Discover the World of Tiny Giants

Prepare to have your world turned upside down. From the acclaimed creators of Planet Earth comes Tiny Giants, an awe-inspiring journey into the world of our planet’s smallest heroes. This film masterfully shifts your perspective to ground level, where a single grain of sand becomes a sprawling desert, and a cluster of mushrooms transforms into a towering city skyline.

Follow the epic adventures of mice and chipmunks as they navigate a world filled with immense challenges and breathtaking beauty. The cinematography is nothing short of a masterpiece, capturing the intricate details of species we often overlook. When viewed in 3D, the experience becomes even more profound, pulling you directly into their miniature realm. Paired with Ben Foster’s magnificent musical score, Tiny Giants elevates the small-scale drama of Mother Nature into a cinematic event that will hold every member of the family in its spell.

Take Flight with the Breathtaking Wings 3D

If Tiny Giants grounds you in a hidden world, Wings launches you into the heavens. Get ready to feel the wind beneath your wings as you take flight with some of the world’s most fascinating birds. Expert filmmaker John Downer’s revolutionary footage doesn’t just show you birds flying—it puts you in the pilot’s seat, creating the exhilarating illusion of flight.

Soar between the skyscrapers of New York City, glide through the vastness of the Grand Canyon, and immerse yourself in a vibrant swarm of scarlet macaws over the rivers of Peru. From the powerful grace of a vulture to the majestic perspective of an eagle, you will witness our world from angles previously inaccessible to humankind. An accompanying orchestral score turns these remarkable moments into an emotional and powerful journey. The filmmakers have truly outdone themselves, capturing the freedom and beauty of flight in a way you’ve never seen before.

An Unforgettable Family Movie Night

This summer, trade the usual blockbuster for an adventure that is both thrilling and truly enriching. BBC Earth’s Tiny Giants and Wings 3D are two essential additions to your family’s to-do list. They offer inspiring new perspectives on the planet we call home, reminding us that heroes come in all sizes and that beauty can be found from the forest floor to the highest clouds.

So, gather the family, dim the lights, and prepare to be amazed. Every minute is a breath of fresh air.
