60 Jahre „Expeditionen ins Tierreich“ mit Heinz Sielmann

In the organizer's words:

Kangaroos in Australia, lizards in Galapagos, seals on the North Sea coast. Expeditions into the Animal Kingdom" has been running for sixty years. This makes the animal film one of NDR's most traditional flagships. This is a reason to celebrate and a good reason to look back: Heinz Sielmann launched the series in April 1965, and his "Expeditions into the Animal Kingdom" thrilled an audience of millions. To this day, the program remains true to itself, showing breathtaking discoveries in faraway countries or right on our doorstep. The anniversary edition takes a look behind the scenes and shows the animal filmmakers at work yesterday and today. To mark this anniversary, we - together with the Heinz Sielmann Foundation - cordially invite you to a cinema evening on April 17, followed by an expert panel discussion. NDR will broadcast the new anniversary film on April 30 at 8:15 pm. We are giving you the exclusive opportunity to see it in advance as a preview. We look forward to welcoming you to this special evening.
