"The merit of SCRAPBOOKS FROM AFRICA AND BEYOND is to show the real Peter Beard. The legend is almost perfect." - Liberation, Paris
Easily the most compelling and comprehensive movie ever produced about the life and work of Peter Beard, covering all aspects of his life, professional career, and personal adventures beginning in the 1960s through the 1990s. This is the definitive portrait of the world's greatest adventure photographer.
