The damming of the Zambezi at the Kariba Gorge, and the subsequent flooding of the Gwembe Valley, had an extraordinary impact on this wild and remote region.
Set against the stunning backdrop of Lake Kariba, ‘Zambezi – Flood Without End’ captures rare images of the enormous rescue efforts to save thousands of animals from drowning, and traces the unique events which have occurred and are still unfolding in this region.
