Insects – Hidden Heroes

2026 · Documentary

How did our world come into being? Beneath our feet lies a class of animals far more numerous than any other. Let us embark on a journey through time dating back 400 million years, and witness how scattered pieces fit together to form a complete whole. Insects – Hidden Heroes takes us into the microcosm with stunning visuals. Narrated by screen icon Katharina Thalbach, the film poses a question: Must it be humanity or nature?
