Down To The Earth's Core

2012 · 89 min Documentary
6.3 / 10 · TMDB

Down to the Earth’s Core takes viewers from the sidewalk to the centre of the planet in one epic unbroken shot. Using spectacular computer generated imagery; the camera smashes through almost 9 000 kilometres of solid rock to explore the hidden world beneath our feet. Experience an earthquake inside the San Andreas Fault, blast out of a volcano, encounter bizarre cave-dwelling creatures and enter caves full of giant crystals – all inside planet Earth. As the camera lowers into Earth's bosom, the planet’s extraordinary story, is laid bare layer by layer, showing how prehistoric forests became modern-day fuel, witnessing the dinosaur’s cataclysmic death, and watching as stalactites form and gold grows before our eyes. Deeper, beyond the reach of any mine, any drill, we find wonders beyond imagination: towering molten metal tornadoes, forests of solid iron crystals, until we reach the strangest, least understood place on the planet – the core.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

This documentary is a spectacular and visceral geology lesson, transforming abstract science into a gripping visual plunge. Its power lies in the relentless 'one-shot' conceit, generating a dizzying sensation of freefall through both space and deep time.

What lingers after the credits roll is a profound sense that beneath our feet lies not just dirt, but a dynamic, living universe with a dramatic history. It fundamentally alters your perception of the seemingly solid ground. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Yavar Abbas
