Dereck e Beverly Joubert sono, da oltre trent'anni, tra i migliori cameramen al mondo di film naturalistici. I loro lavori hanno permesso di conoscere meglio la vita e le abitudini dei grandi mammiferi africani ma anche di registrarne il drastico calo che li pone a rischio di estinzione. Come nel caso dei leoni, immortalati in questo documentario.

The Last Lions (2011)
88 min
In Botswana's Okavango Delta, an ostracized lioness and her two cubs must fight alone to survive - overcoming all manner of hazards. Their only defense is to escape to Duba Island -- and with that, an unknown future. The setting for this epic tale is one of the last regions where lions can live in the wild. Faced with dwindling land and increasing pressure from hunting, lions - like our lone lioness and her cubs - are approaching the brink of extinction.
