On Botswana's Linyanti Plains, a band of brothers reigns amongst the top predators: three cheetahs - partners since birth and one of the most efficient hunting forces on the plains - until tragedy strikes. Achilles, the hunt leader of the brotherhood, is killed by a cobra bite, leaving his brothers Odin and Shiva to fend for themselves. With their coalition diminished they must adapt fast: learning to hunt as a twosome and defend their kills without the help of Achilles. Confounding their efforts is a host of predators: an injured leopard, a cunning hyena and a devious black-backed jackal. Making matters worse, a lone male cheetah begins to trespass on their land. Will these cheetah blood brothers survive the overwhelming odds stacked against them?

A nature documentary about the sustainability of contemporary riverbank habitats... In the past, we were surrounded by vast river worlds. All living creatures came together in the richest and ever-changing environment of lowland rivers. The freedom of river basins is now a thing of the past. We have also shackled the Danube landscape. We dammed the flow, cut off the side arms, fortified the banks, and drained the wetlands. Water can no longer bring new nutrients to the land. This also negatively affects the fate of golden bee-eaters, playful sandpipers, and wet-footed fishermen.
