Synopsis: The story of the evolution of life on Earth.
Review: This documentary aims at telling the story of life on Earth, and at the same time explaining the concept of Evolution to finally conclude on the meaning of the term Tree of Life. It does it via a patchwork of extracts of other old or recent documentaries featuring David Attenborough throughout his long career of travelling around the world to document what happens in Nature, the whole thing being wrapped in a narrative by ... the unmissable David Attenborough. Nothing revolutionary but a successful attempt at vulgarizing a complex scientific topic using illustrations found in today's Nature.
