Superquark

Season 21 Episode 8: Episode 8

The documentary of the eighth episode of SuperQuark will have as its protagonist the most likeable animal, the funniest, but endowed with exceptional qualities and great courage, its characteristics are special: it walks upright, has no legs, has wings, but does not fly in the air but under water. It is naturally the penguin. Made in the very harsh and freezing areas of Antarctica, what the documentary tells is a kind of family story of a king penguin, who at the age of three returns to the island on which he was born, called by the instinct of reproduction. An overcrowded island, inhabited by 6 million penguins. There he must find his life partner, with whom he will have to generate that single egg that will represent the only chance of his offspring. The great circulation of travellers in the world has also created a great circulation of viruses that can spread rapidly.
