Munich/ Toronto, September 10th, 2009. Munich based sales company Bavaria Film International has taken on the documentary feature about iconic British primatologist turned environmentalist, humanist and UN peace ambassador, Jane Goodall. Captured over the course of almost an entire year, ‘Jane’s Journey’ is an intimate portrait of one of the most prominent and possibly most influential women of our time that has influenced opinion leaders and decision makers all over the world, from UN general secretary Kofi Anan to public figures of environmental responsibility and sustainability such as Angelina Jolie or Pierce Brosnan who will be featured in the film.
In the early 60’s, Jane Goodall started out with groundbreaking behavioural studies on tribal warfare and the creation of tools amongst chimpanzee populations in “Gombe Stream National Park” in Tanzania, Africa. In the 80’s, the awarded Dame of the British Empire” abandoned her career as a scientist to become a full-time activist, circling the globe 300 days a year, giving lectures and spreading her central message of hope.
Directed by Lorenz Knauer and produced by Munich Based Neos Film, ‘Jane’s Journey’ concentrates not only on the official image and public figure but also explores the contradictions, weaknesses and neglects of the private life behind it. Aside from coverage of her still central work in the national park in Africa, her public appearances and a look at her institutional accomplishments such as the ‘roots & shoots movement’ for children all over the world. Shooting took place from January until September and post-production has started, with an international premiere immanent in early summer 2010.
Dr. Jane Goodall has been awarded Dame of the British Empire, UNESCO Gold Medal Award, French Legion of Honor, TIME Magazine European Heroes Award amongst others.
