Drawing from over 100 hours of footage shot in Tanzania’s Gombe National Park in the 1960s, director Brett Morgen tells the story of JANE, a woman whose chimpanzee research challenged the male-dominated scientific consensus of her time and revolutionised our understanding of the natural world. Set to a score from composer Philip Glass, the film offers a portrait of Dr. Jane Goodall — a trailblazer who defied the odds to become one of the world’s most admired conservationists.
