When Jane Goodall first arrived in Tanzania, nobody knew that in the process of studying chimps in the wild, she would make discoveries that changed the definition of being human and the way we look at the division between humans and the animal world. As Jane makes a return trip to Gombe — 50 years after she first set foot there to launch a career that changed the world — we gain a new appreciation for her passion for conservation and the realities of both the natural world and humanity's effect upon it.
This intimate and exclusive documentary about Goodall, featuring restored footage from the National Geographic Archives that has not been seen in 50 years, tells the story of one of the most influential and beloved figures in the natural history world. At points stunning, heartbreaking, and deeply thoughtful, it will give you a new perspective on Goodall's work and on our own place in the world.
