Jane
PRESENTED BY: Backbone Meaningful Movies on Vashon“Jane” tells the story of Jane Goodall, a woman whose chimpanzee research challenged the male-dominated scientific consensus of her time and revolutionized our understanding of the natural world. The film draws from over 100 hours of never-before-seen footage that has been tucked away in the National Geographic archives for over 50 years.
Set to a rich orchestral score from legendary composer Philip Glass, the film offers an unprecedented, intimate portrait of Jane Goodall — a trailblazer who defied the odds to become one of the world’s most admired conservationists.
