Mountains of the Moon
“Two strangers made friends by a savage land. Two friends made enemies by the civilized world.”
AdventureDramaHistory
The story of Captain Richard Francis Burton's and Lt. John Hanning Speke's expedition to find the source of the Nile river in the name of Queen Victoria's British Empire.
VIBE
A sweeping, elegiac journey through breathtaking landscapes. It's a contemplative look at ambition, fraught companionship, and the vast, indifferent beauty of the natural world, tinged with the melancholy of fading connections.
