Summary: "The final film brings together the themes of the series and reaches some startling conclusions. The Earth is an exceptionally rare planet -- and an exceptionally unusual one -- which has only been able to nurture and sustain complex life thanks to an extraordinary number of lucky breaks and coincidences. But this film also raises a huge question -- are we in danger of messing up the very systems that make Earth so different and so special? The programme travels to Madagascar, a place where man's influence on the planet is keenly felt." --producer's website
