Becoming Cousteau (Parent And Baby Screening) (12A)

Born in Saint-Andre-de-Cubzac, Jacques-Yves Cousteau originally dreamed of a career in aviation but a car accident unexpectedly turned his attention to the sea. Free-diving in the South of France was part of his rehabilitation and sparked a fascination with the deep. He co-invented the aqualung and pushed the boundaries of underwater photography. This feature-length documentary celebrates the French ocean explorer, who sounded the alarm about environmental damage before it was fashionable.
