The Sonoran Desert: A Violent Eden(1997)
An intriguing look at the agonies of the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, northern Mexico and Southern California forthrightly reveals the animals' and vegetation's dreadful task of accommodating themselves to their homeland. Stunningly photographed by Keith Brust, producer-writer Sean Morris and their companions --- with Barry Nye lending his customary editing assurance --- provide a handsome study of deprivation and survival and an illuminating look at how the other half lives and dies.
