  1. Planet on Fire

    This video presents a striking contrast between the enduring legacy of human civilisation and the imminent threat of global environmental collapse. Visual records of the Easter Island moai statues serve as silent witnesses to history, captured under the Milky Way and the glow of Pacific sunsets.

  8. Unlocking the mysteries of Easter Island stone statues

    Easter Island, a Chilean territory known as Isla de Pascua in Spanish and Rapa Nui by native inhabitants, is a remote volcanic piece of land in the Pacific Ocean.

    It is home to almost 1,000 giant stone structures known as Moai, sculpted hundreds of years ago in tribute to local ancestors who experts say date as far back as the 13th century.
