At age 26, Jane Goodall set out into Tanzania's Gombe Stream National Park to study chimpanzees in the wild and up close for the first time. Her research challenged the male-dominated scientific consensus of her time and revolutionized our understanding of the natural world and human origins. Drawing from over 100 hours of never-before-seen footage documenting Goodall's early expeditions that has been tucked away in the National Geographic archives for over 50 years, award-winning director Brett Morgen tells the story of JANE, a trailblazer who defied the odds to become one of the world's most admired conservationists.
