Synopsis

Journeys into the jungle, deep-sea diving and space exploration were once considered adventures that only a man, usually with a big bushy beard, could handle. In the last century, women have not only proven this as false, they have become some of the leading professional figures of their respective fields. This National Geographic documentary celebrates the trail blazing women working in STEM, such as primate expert Jane Goodall, and uncovers how they are inspiring the next generation of female scientists and explorers on their own unique trajectories. The numerous contributors highlight the wide range of career options that can help to protect our planet, while also flagging the importance of representation to combat sexism and racism. With stunning footage from around the globe of conservation work in action, the film invites us to discover the opportunities for everyone to explore the natural world.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."
