Editor's Take

Returning to the islands that helped shape the theory of natural selection, Attenborough uses the Galapagos as a working laboratory of evolution. The film reads adaptation, isolation, and change through specific inhabitants, from the great Wolf Volcano to the smallest finch. Its argument is quietly Darwinian, letting the archipelago demonstrate the mechanism. It is an accessible account of why these islands remain central to biology.
