Surviving Paradise: A Family Tale is another documentary to add to the nature lovers list, which explores the Okavango Delta, a vast oasis, isolated from the rest of the world by unforgiving desert, which also pairs as a refuge, built and maintained daily by its inhabitants.

'Surviving Paradise: A Family Tale' plot
As well as providing for a vast community of residents, Okavango Delta is home to a dense amount of wildlife, as Netflix explains: “Big cats may appear to reign here, but in reality, the fate of every creature, great and small, is intertwined. This film explores the blueprints for building the perfect world, managing it sustainably, and maintaining it — despite extremes of drought, famine, and flood.
“Most crucially, it spotlights those passing the secret formula on to their descendants, who will find it harder than ever before to keep their Eden intact.”
