African Adventure 3D:
For many of us, Africa remains a distant and inaccessible place.
Now however, there is an opportunity to visit the Okavango Delta,
one of the most unique wilderness areas on this fascinating
continent, in a new 40 minute giant screen film, African Adventure
3D: Safari in the Okavango.
The Delta,
created by the flood waters of the Okavango, is so large it
can be spotted from deep space like a giant hand, bringing
relief to this desolate region. Little-known to the outside
world until a few decades ago, this secluded 20,000 square
km maze of lagoons, channels and islands forms one of the
most beautiful and pristine wildlife reserves on Earth.
This is
not an exhaustive documentary about the region, but rather
a unique photo safari in the flooded desert.
Led by
South African zoologist Liesl Eichenberger, viewers join world-
renowned wildlife filmmaker Tim Liversedge, for a thrilling
adventure in the flooded desert. Through stunning 3D photography,
they get “up close and personal” with a great
variety of big-game animals, crocodiles, hippos, elephants,
and lions, and observe one of the largest bird concentrations
on the planet.
