A Threatening Presence - Volcanoes on New Zealand
Documentary
How do humans live in harmony with the titanic power of volcanism? A powerful documentary exploring New Zealand’s volcanic landscape, examining Mount Taranaki’s past collapses and looming threat, the 1886 eruption of Mount Tarawera that buried the famed Pink and White Terraces, and how geothermal forces shape ecosystems, power communities, and drive scientific discovery. A gripping reminder of nature’s destructive power and life-giving potential. Narrated by Tim Balme. Directed by Mark Strickson
