Australopithecus afarensis was the first hominin to leave the safety of the trees for life in the grasslands. Slow on foot, they struggled to survive on the African continent 3.7 million years ago.
In the series "Out of the Cradle," NHK tracks the evolutionary journey of prehistoric primates over the course of 7 million years as they grew into the dominant species on Earth. This uses CGI technology from the world’s foremost video game creators to tell the story of human ancestors with extraordinarily lifelike visuals.
