Journey with Charles Darwin aboard the HMS Beagle to South America to explore the theory of evolution. This film examines the vast diversity of life on Earth and our place within the evolutionary tree, explaining the mechanisms of evolution known to Darwin and those discovered by later science.
Embark on an extraordinary voyage with Charles Darwin aboard the HMS Beagle, charting a course towards the coasts of South America to uncover the theory of evolution. This film delves into the immense diversity of life that has evolved from the single-celled organisms of our planet's primordial oceans and questions humanity's assumed special place in the development of species. It explores where modern science places us on the tree of life and the true nature of evolution. By tracing Darwin's observations and his gradual understanding of life's driving processes, including our own, the film also introduces mechanisms that Darwin could not have known but were later uncovered by scientific research. Designed for viewers aged 12 and above, the film is presented with a voice-over by Marek Lelek and includes audio description and Polish subtitles.
