Can anyone help me?

Question.

about a year ago i saw a film on Television. ( i think it was on Discovery channel) ( not sure).

It  was starring a beautifull blond lady with long hair and an old Masai warrior and 2 lions that were travelling and went to see the ocean. They travelled on a sand desert also.

I am still looking for it , and if its out on DVD i will sure buy it.

Can anyone help me with information ? 

Take care.

I don't know which film you are referring to but I am guessing that the long-blond-haired woman that you saw in the film was Saba Douglas-Hamilton. She has been in many wildlife films over the years and, although I cannot remember the exact name of any particular film I do remember that she made one one which involved the release of a captive bred lion - is that the film which you refer to?

Thanks a LOT Tabs! really appreciated!

Now my quest is to find the film.

She is travelling with a masai old warrior and as far as i remember 2 lions true several landscape's including a sand dune desert, The movie ends when they arrive at the Ocean.

I just saw briefly fragments  from a lot of her movies on youtube already but not the one i am searching for.

I just sended an email to her management . I Hope they can help me.

I also saw this film and I was fascinated with Marlice and her state of
harmony with the wild world around her. I´ve never seen such a beautiful scene as her playing with the lions at the sunset.
This film made a deep impression on me, and I wanted to find more
informations about Marlice and her father`s sanctuary. This is the
information I can find out. Hope, it will be useful to you.
