About the Screening
Award-winning filmmaker Brett Morgen (“Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck”) uses a trove of 16 mm footage unearthed from the National Geographic archives to tell the story of JANE, a young, untrained woman whose only dream was to live among animals and learn about them. Featuring an original score from legendary composer Philip Glass, the film presents an intimate portrait of Jane Goodall, whose chimpanzee research challenged the male-dominated scientific consensus of her time and revolutionized our understanding of the natural world.
