Voices of Pura Vida
Costa Rica
Our latest film is here. Voices of Pura Vida takes us into Costa Rica, a land where only 0.03% of the Earth's surface holds nearly 6% of all known species. From coral reefs to mangroves, from rainforest canopies to dry forests, it's not just land: it's a living blueprint of coexistence.
This documentary explores the delicate dance between humans and nature, guided by Costa Rica's spirit of conservation and its timeless motto: pura vida.
Filmed during a diving press expedition supported by the Costa Rican Tourism Board (ICT) and with a commission for Scuba Diver Magazine, the film dives deep into stories carried by water, wind and wilderness.
