Free event: March of the Penguins

Do you remember those Wild Kingdom animal documentaries on TV? I recall it was one of the few shows I and my non-English speaking parents and grandparents could all watch together. I am not sure if the reproductive lives of the animals were depicted in those old shows, but with works like Sundance Channel's randy series Seduce Me, animal behavior will always be a fascinating topic.

The documentary March of the Penguins continues in that path, showing emperor penguins mating and raising families.  Filmmakers must be really passionate to spend all that time out in the frigid cold to pursue film footage like this.

This is in French but subtitled. Register here for the movie.
