You may know the ocean from the Finding Nemo fairytale, where Marvin, a clownfish, sets out far beyond his cliff and meets many obstacles during his journey. But what truly lies hidden in the ocean and what is living in it like? The film Hidden Pacific explores remote and protected islands, underwater life and American national marine landmarks in the Pacific ocean. A beautiful nature still unmarked by civilization is depicted. At the same time the problems of rising ocean levels and its acidification, excessive fishing, and pollution are highlighted.

Hidden Pacific offers many breathtaking shots of the marine, terrestrial and aerial worlds, but it falls a bit short as far as new knowledge is concerned – it shows rather than teaches and discovers. But the film points out to the ever worsening environmental situation – plastic pollution and the increase in acidity and water temperature in the ocean.
