Maa-yiem, the extraordinary story of Jordi Sabater Pi

Screening of the documentary "Maa-yiem, the extraordinary story of Jordi Sabater Pi". (Spain, 59 min, 2022 - Turkana Film).

The primatologist Jordi Sabater Pi lands in Equatorial Guinea at the age of 17, fleeing from the post-war period. Dazzled by Africa, notebook in hand, he entered the kingdom of the pygmies living with the chimpanzees. His field notebooks revealed for the first time to the world behaviors that changed forever what was known until then about these great primates. In 1966 he discovered Snowflake (Floquet de Neu), an albino gorilla that would become an icon.

At the end there will be a discussion with Enrique Baquero, deputy director of the Science Museum of the University of Navarra.

Organized by LabMeCrazy! Science Film Festival of the Science Museum of the University of Navarra.
