Overview

Go behind the scenes in one of the last remaining wild places on Earth. In the northwest corner of British Columbia, between Alaska and the northern tip of Vancouver Island, lies a land of forest green and sparkling blue. From the vast schools of silver herring to the massive silver-tipped grizzly bears, an immense array of wildlife calls this place home. This is the Great Bear Rainforest: misty, lush, wild, abundant. It rains most of the time in this coastal paradise; the falling water washes clean the trees and plants and mosses, soaks the roots deep in the dark soil and makes the forest fresh for each new day. Now the Great Bear Rainforest is accessible to everyone, in exceptional, immersive quality on the giant imax© screen. Experience the making of this epic adventure with the whole family.
