La straordinaria storia dell'uomo (prima parte)

Overview

With Alberto Angela we will retrace the long history of our species, which starting from very primitive beings led to modern man. It will be a story created not only with finds and exploration of the sites, but also with accurate reconstructions of the hominids who followed one another over the course of five million years: Austrolopithecines, Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Neanderthals, Cro-magnons, etc. For the first time the entire gallery of our most distant ancestors will be visualized thanks to fiction and computer processing. The scenes with actors were filmed in the African savannahs, in the same places where human evolution took place: under the guidance of experts, in particular Prof. Yves Coppens of Paris, one of the most authoritative researchers in human paleontology, they the appearance of these primitive hominids and also scenes of their life have been reconstructed, just as it is possible today to reconstruct them based on all the studies done.
