How do we humans fit into nature? Do we percieve ourselves to be of a higher order? Has it always been this way?
This was a real labour of love and appealed to our sensibilities. We’re always keen to tell the story of humans as part of nature and get behind ecological awareness. The trick was to keep the narrative generalised for a broad audience without going as esoteric as we might have liked. It’s such an honour to make these films for the BBC with the support of wonderful Exec Producer Cordelia Hebblethwaite.
