Jane

Jane (2017) is Brett Morgen's documentary that you can watch online on iFILM, assembled almost entirely from footage left unseen in the National Geographic archive for fifty years.

A young Jane Goodall arrives at Gombe in Tanzania with no degree and limitless patience. Filming her — and later marrying her — is wildlife cameraman Hugo van Lawick, who catches chimpanzees making tools, fighting, grieving and reaching for one another. Morgen shapes the reels into something personal: the story of a woman who quietly redrew the line between humans and animals.

Philip Glass wrote the score, turning field observation into something close to meditation. It rewards more than nature buffs — it's a study of stubbornness that outlasted the academic snobbery of the 1960s. Stream Jane (2017) online on iFILM.
