Description
Description
This film by Alan and Joan root explores the contrasting landscapes of East Africa. During the dry season many animals migrate to greener pastures. Those that remain must protect themselves from the sun's wrath or harvest droplets of moisture from the morning dew. But with the onset of the rains, life springs back in amazing abundance, and the great herds return to the plains.
