Pole to Pole with Will Smith (2026)

S1E5 The Pacific Islands

Accompanied by linguist Dr. Mary Walworth and local marine ecologist John Aini, Will embarks on an expedition to a secluded island in the South Pacific, endangered by rising sea levels. What starts as a quest to uncover an extraordinary marine environment evolves into a profound personal journey for Will as he delves into his own past. Together, they document a nearly extinct language, spoken by just five individuals, shedding light on a rich cultural heritage on the brink of vanishing.
