True Survivors
Why are we so fascinated with survival? The wealth of hit reality TV shows on the topic reveals the extent of our obsession. Through a journey of scientific and personal discovery, True Survivors challenges the modern stereotype of “man against nature” and gets to the root of human survival: the capacity for connection and cooperation, to each other in close-knit social groups and to the landscapes we call home. While our future is uncertain in the face of climate change, we know that surviving is intrinsic to what it means to be human.
