Survival begins at birth.

Step back 5.2 million years into the Pliocene epoch, a time when our earliest ancestors, Ardipithecus ramidus, walked the dangerous line between the safety of the trees and the peril of the open savanna. In this unforgiving world, the most natural process of life—childbirth—is also the most deadly.

In this immersive, cinematic survival story, we witness a lone female fighting through the agony of labor while trying to remain perfectly silent. The scent of birth has drawn a pack of prehistoric hyenas, turning a moment of new life into a high-stakes siege. Protected only by a small, fragile troop using primitive intimidation tactics, this mother must rely on ancient instincts to bring the next generation into the world.

Experience the raw vulnerability of early human evolution, the terrifying reality of prehistoric predators, and the unbreakable bonds of the first families. This is not just a nature documentary; it is a glimpse into the dangerous origins of humanity.

Witness the silence, the fear, and the ultimate triumph of life
