The Last Animals

Kate Brooks, USA/UK, 2017, 92 min

From Africa’s front lines to behind the scenes of Asian markets to the United States, the film takes an intense look at the global response to the slaughter of elephants and rhinos. We follow the conservationists, scientists and activists battling poachers and transnational trafficking syndicates to save the planet’s last animals.

Let there be Light tells the story of dedicated scientists working to build a small sun on Earth, which would unleash perpetual, cheap, clean energy for mankind. After decades of failed attempts, a massive push is now underway to crack the holy grail of energy.
