Following its Edinburgh premiere, we are pleased to present Walt Disney’s fabulous new nature documentary in the tradition of March of the Penguins. For documentary filmmaker Matthew Aeberhard, the extraordinary gathering of one and a half million flamingos on the shores of the isolated Lake Natron in northern Tanzania surpasses all the wonders of the natural world.
Against a dramatic backdrop of never-before filmed landscapes, these secretive birds struggle to survive and prevail over danger and fate. This inspiring story, set in the extraordinary 'otherworld' in northern Tanzania, the cradle of humankind, reminds us: here on earth is a universe waiting to be discovered.
There is no other lake in Africa, no other lake in the world, where flamingos gather in such numbers and to such dizzying effect and Natron’s inaccessibility makes it a sight very few people have seen.
