Jane (2017) 12

United States of America | 2017 | 90 min.

An unprecedented, intimate portrait of Jane Goodall - a trailblazer who defied the odds to become one of the world´s most admired conservationists. Drawing from over 100 hours of never-before-seen footage that has been tucked away in the National Geographic archives for over 50 years, this is the story of Jane, a woman whose chimpanzee research challenged the male-dominated scientific consensus of her time and revolutionized our understanding of the natural world.
