What Surviving Paradise: A Family Tale Is About
A dry season that runs longer than it should in the Kalahari changes the arithmetic for everything living there. Prides, packs and herds all end up holding onto the same thing to get through the months without water: their own families. The documentary treats wildlife as a story with characters rather than as a lesson in natural history, following individual animals inside the groups. Regé-Jean Page narrates. Eighty minutes, made for Netflix. What separates it from the usual desert documentary is the dramatic shaping and the focus on how families hold together, which is also why it can feel over-scripted if that is not to your taste.
