A 13-episode documentary series
Based on the book by Giorgos Grammatikakis, "Berenice's Hair"

How did the first forms of life evolve into the most complex earthly organism, humans? How did we, from the common origin of all species, lead to the incredible diversity of life?
Humans differ from chimpanzees in only 1% of their genes, yet this crucial percentage is enough to give us language, imagination, science, and art.
The biology professor at the University of Athens, Kostas Krimbas, discusses with Giorgos Grammatikakis the Darwinian theory of evolution, against the backdrop of the Natural History Exhibition at the University of Crete in Chania.
In Patras, Professor Elias Kouvelas guides us through the science of the mind, brain function, and cognition.
Finally, in Heidelberg, Professor Fotis Kafatos, Director of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (E.M.B.L.), talks to us about the role of heredity and the environment in shaping us, about cloning, the future, and the risks of genetics.
