All Hail The Queens — SafariSmiths Travel

Written by Jen Markus | Mar 6, 2024 5:00:00 AM

National Geographic’s newest documentary series “Queens” just dropped, and we obviously binge-watched it immediately. 

Our main takeaway? We don’t call her Mother Nature for nothing. 

National Geographic’s seven-episode limited docuseries “Queens” uses stunning camera work to focus on the females, matriarchs, and sisterhoods of the wild. 

The gorgeous cinematography showcases female lionesses, elephants, and other wildlife relentlessly in their pursuit to protect what’s theirs. Each story is wrapped in a powerful and bold soundtrack, showcasing the females’ leadership, cunning behavior, and all-too-relatable motherhood experiences. Not to mention — the honey-voiced Angela Bassett is the narrator. The film definitely has style.

All in all, we give this series a 10/10. All Hail the Queens.
