Pandas are beloved around the world, and now they are coming to the big screen in the IMAX original film Pandas. This breathtaking documentary adventure is an amazing experience for the whole family. Narrated by Kristen Bell (Frozen, TV's The Good Place), this film follows scientists at the Chengdu Panda Base in China who are breeding adult Giant Pandas in order to introduce cubs into the wild.
What starts as a cross-culture collaboration becomes a life-changing journey for an American biologist who cross an ocean to join a scientist from Inner Mongollia and a very curious female cub named Qian Qian, born in captivity.
Captured with IMAX cameras, join Qian Qian on an exciting new adventure in the mountains of Sichuan as she takes her first steps outside her protected habitat, discovering her true animal nature – even as she faces the challenges of the unknown.
