Impressively shot nature documentary, filmed over a period of 2 1/2 years, about a leopard family in the African savannah. The documentary distinguishes itself from most genre peers because we actually see director Alex Parkinson and his team at work during filming, making it partly a making of. The leopards are depicted in an incredibly intimate way and the visible impact of the years-long project on the members of the team gives the documentary an extra emotional charge.

Brad Bestelink and his crew filmed a leopard family in Botswana. Bestelink's voiceover leaves something to be desired, and the pop songs on the soundtrack are distracting. However, because the commentary is limited to observations, the viewer is given the space to interpret the animals' behavior for themselves. The interludes consist of interesting reflections by crew members on their experiences during filming and on how the inevitable bond that develops with the leopards makes it difficult to maintain integrity in your work. A captivating story, and the visuals are undeniably stunning.
