The astonishing life of Richard Leakey, paleoanthropologist, conservationist, statesman and provocateur, is illuminated in this new National Geographic film. It investigates four decades of exploration around Kenya’s Lake Turkana, which have given rise to both breakthroughs and controversy in the contentious field of human evolution. Bones of Turkana follows Richard, his wife, Meave, daughter Louise and the world-famous fossil-hunters of the Turkana Basin Institute on a recent dig along the shores of a mercurial lake. What emerges is both a portrait of a remarkable family and a dramatic tale of a place that, impacted by momentous climate change, has never ceased being the cauldron of human evolution. Candid conversations with Richard reveal a man who has struggled in search of truth and faced formidable challenges from political and academic realms, but ultimately prevailed in establishing a lasting legacy of paleo-exploration.

Bob Marley: This Land Is Your Land

2012 • 56 min
While there is little argument that Bob Marley was the finest reggae performer and songwriter of his time, it is sometimes forgotten what an effective protest singer and dynamic spokesman for the underdog this pioneering poet also was. And although his message was always one of peace and he never recommended 'fighting fire with fire', he managed to affect the political situation for better in both his homeland and around the world by preaching the simple dictum, 'Love thy neighbour'. This film documents both the music and the message of Bob Marley as it investigates his life and career in a manner not previously undertaken. Featuring contributions from many who knew him personally, rare archive interviews, seldom seen footage and photos and an array of other features which altogether reveal the kind of man Marley was and the effect he had by making his music the message.
