WaterBear, the "environmental Netflix," will feature audio description on selected content

 

What if we could invite everyone to go from doomerism to domoreism? This is how WaterBear, the fully free streaming service/publisher, describes its mission. Launched in 2020, this platform provides documentaries and movies with an environmental and humanitarian focus completely free of charge. And now, thanks to a collaboration with Dicapta, WaterBear is adding audio description to many of its films. 

The main objective of WaterBear is to stir people into taking action through entertainment, and that is reflected in their catalog, which tackles many pressing environmental issues. Take, for example, Where the Butterflies Go, a movie in which a failing filmmaker, along with his best friend, travel 3,000 miles from Canada to Mexico asking people how to save the endangered monarch butterfly, and ourselves, from extinction. Or From Asia to Antarctica, a short film by Eco-Business that tells the climate change story through a unique Asian lens.

Other featured titles include: Cuba: Paradise on the Brink, Quest for Nature, Costa Rica: Wildlife Under the Rainbow, Beyond the Mirage, The Reciprocity Project, One Way Ticket, Swans: Mystery of the Missing, Journey to the East: An Epic Philosophical Adventure, and Dancing on Icebergs.

Dicapta will work together with WaterBear to provide audio description for these and many more of their films. In this sense, they are also taking action by making their content accessible to a new, wider audience. We are static to cooperate with such a motivated and driven force for change. 

Audio description for WateBear’s films can be found through the All4Access app. Funding for these accessibility elements is provided by the United States Department of Education under grant H327C210001.
