Claire’s Creatures

Marine scientist Claire Nouvian and her mysterious collection of deep sea creatures.

33-year-old Claire Nouvian is a documentary film maker and a curator at the Paris Museum of Natural History.
She has a passion for mysterious creatures from the depths of the ocean.
She accompanies researchers from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in California as they probe the depths of the Monterey Canyon using a remote-controlled submersible to observe and capture the amazing creatures that live there.
Thanks to new technology, fifty new species are being discovered each year in the ocean depths.
Claire is delighted to be given a large-mouthed eel for her display at the museum in Paris.
