     Lazy relatives. Jealous neighbours. Runaway kids. The everyday troubles of every family, even a pride of lions. Shot over three years, the film follows Mfumu, the pride’s leader, as he defends against predators and rival males and his mate Chipazuwa. Can this year’s cubs survive the crocodiles who have decimated all their previous offspring?

From the way they look after their young to the way they trap their pray; spiders are a marvel of nature. With over 40,000 species, some deadly, some harmless and some notorious, Little Matters delves deep into the intricate and wonderful world of the spider.

Will everything work out in the end?

This engaging documentary lifts the lid on the life of the turtle. Contrary to our perceptions of them as slow and peaceful animals, they are actually impressive hunters, predators, and lovers. We explore their ultimate hunting techniques, marvel at the vast distances they travel, and the remarkable fact that, although they spend most of their lives alone, they synchronize with thousands of others to lay their eggs on the same beach at the same time.
