Synopsis

Animals perceive their surroundings, at times in ways very different from how we humans see them. This is what this documentary shows us by exploring how beauty is an essential force in the survival of species. It reveals that beauty is not merely an ornament, but a vital strategy and a mechanism that ensures the continuity of life.

Through striking examples from the animal and plant kingdoms, it shows how the brilliance of a bird's plumage helps it attract a mate, how the courtship dances of Spanish Ibex secure reproduction, and how the symmetry of a flower is designed to seduce pollinating insects. It also uncovers the beauty within the invisible bonds between parents and their offspring, an evolutionary pillar as powerful as any aesthetic display.

The documentary invites us to see the beauty of nature through the eyes of animals, revealing that what we perceive as aesthetic is, in fact, a key to survival.
