Jane Goodall: Reasons for Hope is a Canadian documentary film, directed by David Lickley and released in 2023. The film features scientist Jane Goodall speaking on various reasons to maintain hope in a positive future, including environmental recovery in the Sudbury area, the reintroduction of the American bison to regions where it had long been virtually extinct, and the political and social engagement of youth.[1]

The 45-minute IMAX film premiered on May 30, 2023, at Science North,[2] with Goodall in attendance,[3] before undertaking an international tour of IMAX theatres.[4]

A shorter 25-minute version also toured the Northern Ontario region as part of a museum exhibition at venues including the Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre in Sault Ste. Marie, the Thunder Bay Museum in Thunder Bay, the Lake of the Woods Discovery Centre in Kenora, and the Cochrane Public Library in Cochrane.[5]

Awards

Amin Bhatia won the Canadian Screen Music Award for Best Original Score for a Short Film in 2023,[6] and Brian Eimer was a Canadian Screen Award nominee for Best Sound Design in a Documentary at the 12th Canadian Screen Awards in 2024.[7]

The film was also named the inaugural winner of a new special award for Sustainable Production at the Canadian Screen Awards.[8]
