Synopsis

*Mara Nights* offers an unprecedented glimpse into the hidden world of nocturnal wildlife within Kenya’s Masai Mara National Park. This groundbreaking production captures animal behavior at night for the first time without artificial light, revealing a wealth of unseen activity. The lion's typically precise hunting strategies give way to a reliance on scent and sound alone; as filmmaker Martin Dohrn puts it, they navigate by “bumping into things then jumping on them.”
