This documentary is the filmed biography of Jane Goodall, who studied chimpanzees for most of her life. Knauer also lets her point out, what made her change her focus or as she puts it: "I was a scientist and turned into an activist." Watching the movie I got the feeling of getting to know Jane with her sympathetic quirks, her great sense of humor and an incredible amount of energy for a 76-year old woman. She is also wise and a lot of the things she gets to say are really deep. So this is by no means a film to lean back and enjoy but one to broaden one's mind. The only slight flaws I saw were some out of focus shots (though I guess marching through the jungle you don't always have the perfect camera equipment) and some redundancy that I don't think is Jane's fault but the directors. I still liked the movie very much it is really inspiring and gives you hope that you can actually do something to change the world we live in.
