Das Great Rift ist neben dem Okavango-Delta die Sahneschnitte für Freunde von Landschafts- und Tierfilmen.
Der Film erinnert mich in seiner Art sehr an "Galapagos" von BBC Earth mit Tilda Swinton als Sprecherin. Er ist in hervorragender HD-Qualität gefilmt, nur dezent und passend mit Musik untermalt und präsentiert die Landschaft wie eine Geschichte, die erzählt wird. Der Erzählstil ist ruhig und entspannt und trotzdem spannend und informativ, bestens verständlich und in schönstem englisch. Erfreulicherweise bleiben einem die ewig gleichen und langweiligen Sahara und Namib-Darstellungen durch das Thema erspart. Das ist selbst für BBC-Maßstäbe absolut top!
The films themselves are of HD quality throughout and can sustain close viewing distance typical of that quality. There are plenty of examples of HD cameras being used and transported during the coverage. The disc is copyrighted as 2014 vintage.
The voice over is provided in English read by Ghanaian-born British actor Hugh Quarshie. Having a narrator who paces the script well and with apparent personal interest greatly enhances the enjoyment for viewers and Hugh Quarshie does well here.
The first episode, Fire, makes it very clear how the entire Great Rift Valley has a volcanic origin that has had, and still does have, a lasting effect upon the whole area. Although most of the volcanoes are now extinct, there are still substantial volcanoes that remain active. This has led to three types of landscape with matching wildlife.
The peaks of the volcanoes are generally desolate areas but further on down the slopes there are substantial forests that could be described as being tropical in nature. Below that there are the substantial grass plains that support vast numbers of roving animals such as various antelopes and large cats. The ‘Making of’ feature focuses on the difficulties and perils of photographing a troop of some 60 baboons which sleep overnight in pitch darkness in subterranean caves. This is not a project for faint-hearted photographers and makes for gripping viewing.
The second episode, Water, explains how the weather system travels up and down from north to south along the length of the Great Rift Valley. This creates two wet seasons during which 2 meters of rain can fall each time. In between there are periods of drought.
The high peaks of the surrounding mountains create the rise and cooling of the wind temperatures which in turn create the rainfall. Generally the west gets the majority of the rainfall driven by the interaction between the peaks and the weather system. The land on the east is more acidic as a result of its greater amount of volcanic dust. The water enables the growth of grass on the plains and the lush forests elsewhere. Water is key for all life in the entire area. For example, elephants need 250 litres a day and buffalo need 35 litres a day just to survive. The ‘Making of’ feature shows how under-water filming was done by using a specially developed and unique type of photographic submarine.
The final episode, Grass, shows how grass is essential to animal wildlife. It is very resilient and, unlike other plants, it grows from the roots rather than the tip. This enables it to survive heavy cropping from grazing animals through to spontaneous fires in the hottest weather. The only trees in the area are thorny acacia trees and they are a source of water from high cropping animals such as giraffes and some antelopes. Other antelopes have evolved narrow heads to enable low cropping of the trees.
Grass grows on the plains because it can grow on the rock-hard underlying volcanic ash unlike trees whose roots cannot penetrate the ground well enough to grow. The ‘Making of’ section features chimpanzees bedding down in trees by making temporary nests. This night-time photography requires special equipment, starlight cameras, and these are the first such images taken.
This is a detailed, informative and invaluable series which gives considerable insight into the Great Rift Valley. It is yet another ‘Must have’ item for those interested in the world’s environments and its inhabitants.
Tiene un hilo conductor muy ameno, paisajes espectaculares, filmaciones inéditas en los documentales de naturaleza hasta el momento y una excelente calidad de imagen y sonido (mi impresión se refiere a la versión británica en Blu-Ray).
Muy recomendable para los aficionados a género documental.
Même si je ne comprends pas tout à l'anglais, les images suffisent d'elles même
