Amazing. It is striking to see the common resemblance of human beings, regardless of their geographical environment. Gen 1:27

Unlike Attenborough films, the focus is not on nature but on the arrogance of human beings over nature. As well, it has a ring of artificiality, presenting events as isolated when they are surrounded by high tech film makers.

This series is highly recommended. It makes one feel proud to be human, and gives a perspective on how some lives are a struggle for survival.
