THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION

---

An expansive look at the virtues and contradictions of the war and the birth of the United States of America, the film follows dozens of figures from a wide variety of backgrounds. Through their individual stories, viewers experience the war through the memories of the men and women who experienced it: the rank-and-file Continental soldiers and American militiamen (some of them teenagers), Patriot political and military leaders, British Army officers, American Loyalists, Native soldiers and civilians, enslaved and free African Americans, German soldiers in the British service, French and Spanish allies, and various civilians living in North America, Loyalist as well as Patriot, including many made refugees by the war.

---

The Revolution began a movement for people around the world to imagine new and better futures for themselves, their nations, and for humanity. It declared American independence with promises that we continue to strive for. The American Revolution opened the door to advance civil liberties and human rights, and it asked questions that we are still trying to answer today.

---

Big Cats 24/7

---

Season Two sees the return of a familiar cast of human and big cat characters. The expert team of cinematographers — Gordon Buchanan, Anna Dimitriadis, Brad Bestelink, Sets Nthomiwa, Rea Schulte to Brinke, Greg Hartman and Tristen Woodward — live and work together from the Natural History Film Unit, Botswana’s remote film camp in the heart of big cat territory. Together, they follow the twists and turns in the lives of key, named big cats, introduced in Season One. Across five vital months, cats — and humans — battle punishing seasonal change, from flood to extreme drought. Over brutal terrain, in searing temperatures and through day and night, the team keeps its cameras rolling 24/7 to capture unparalleled, unseen animal behavior. State-of-the-art thermal cameras, and the latest in drone technology, mean the team can film the cats from the ground, the air and, uniquely, through the night, revealing yet more brand-new insights into their lives.
