If you are wondering why you have a bad back or hip that frequently aches, you may find the reason in the early part of this film. This ambitious documentary type film unfolds like an illustrated book with millions of years between the chapters. It seems generally agreed that our origins were in Africa where the long trek began.

The theory that our hairy ancestors who raced about on all fours discovered that they could see further by elevating themselves on their hind legs seems reasonable. They were better able to find food, and those that did not, succumbed. Six million years ago life was not easy nor in the millions of years that followed. It was a question of survival. Eat and drink or die. Early man learned to adapt and his curiosity and search for food took him on a migratory wandering to all corners of the planet.

It is difficult to tell the story of the origin of mankind in less than two hours, but the attempt is quite impressive and the gradual deveopment of man's thinking powers quite absorbing. It is quite surprising to me how much can be deduced from the shape of a fossilized thighbone or the size of a pelvic bone found in an archeological dig. Apart from expertise in such exercises one would need a well-developed imagination.

"A Species Odyssey" portrays the origins of Mankind from the moment the first primate stood up on their hind legs and set off to conquer the African Savanna, to modern Man, setting off to conquer space. 7 million years of triumph fraught with difficulties and extraordinary events that make Man what he is today.
