Join a group of friends as they revisit the legacy of Homo erectus, an evolutionary ancestor of modern humans who was the first to leave Africa and migrate around the world. Homo erectus made very effective stone tools, was an adept hunter and was physically well adapted for long distance travel - this short documentary film explores all of these adaptations which allowed them to make this epic global voyage.
