As David Attenborough celebrates his 90th birthday this unique film follows the most recent decade in an incredible career. In his early eighties many assumed, including himself, the broadcaster had achieved all he possibly could in his career. But Attenborough turned his back on retirement to embark upon one of the most ambitious and prolific chapters of his career yet, making eleven extraordinary ground breaking projects with a new production team using pioneering technology such as 3D, 4K, and VR. This intimate film, containing behind-the-scenes footage shot over seven years, new interviews and extraordinary clips from some of his recent films, follows Attenborough from the Galapagos Islands to the deserts of Morocco to the jungles of Borneo and captures an Attenborough never seen before. We discover a side to David that few have had the privilege of seeing.
