Viaje de regreso a Alcedo

Overview

A friendship united by two things: volcanoes and giant tortoises, and a legacy written by science. Journey Back to Alcedo tells a story of unconditional love between two intrepid 70-year-old best friends, on their last climb together to the place where it all began, and the legacy they leave to new generations of female scientists. Today, only 13% of the 33,000 inhabitants of the world's most famous natural laboratory are women working in science. In the face of climate change and its profound impacts on women, this documentary highlights the urgent need for more women in conservation and science, especially in fragile and unique environments such as the Galapagos Islands.
