As part of a weeklong celebration of Earth Day, experience the virtual world premiere screening of “Secrets of the Whales.” Narrated by Sigourney Weaver, the new four-part series from National Geographic and Disney+ plunges viewers deep within the epicenter of whale culture to experience the extraordinary communication skills and intricate social structures of five different whale species: orcas, humpbacks, belugas, narwhals, and sperm whales. Filmed over three years in 24 locations, throughout this epic journey we learn that whales are far more complex and more like us than ever imagined.

Before the screening, don’t miss a one-time-only immersive audiovisual performance from acclaimed artist Ricardo Romaneiro. An intimate discussion follows the premiere with executive producer James Cameron and National Geographic explorer and photographer Brian Skerry.
