The Snow Wolf

This film examines the remarkable adaptations and survival strategies of alpine fauna. From the dominant bear, whose might commands respect across the landscape, to the enigmatic bearded vulture, a unique bird that thrives on a diet of bones; from a lone she-wolf, ostracised from her pack, to the astonishing brown frog residing in snowy realms – each species demonstrates incredible ingenuity to cope with the extreme challenges of their environment.

Creating an Ocean

This documentary follows the construction of a gigantic marine life sanctuary in China: a glass and metal structure that can hold a 100-million-litre ocean. Ocean Kingdom, the world’s biggest aquarium, is on the island of Hengqin, next to Macao. There is not a single place that resembles this dream factory, in terms of construction site size, architectural type or scale, number of marine species on show or in estimated volume of visitors.

China and Pakistan to strengthen ties

Pakistan has agreed to deepen trade and investment with China, days after the end of a deadly conflict with India that Beijing urged should be resolved through dialogue. Arch rivals India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire on May 10, after four days of fighting, the worst in nearly three decades. Tensions escalated between the nuclear-armed neighbours after an attack in Indian Kashmir on April 22 that killed 26 men.
