The temple of truth has never suffered so much from woodpeckers on the outside as from termites within. — Vance Havner
Orson Welles narrated this documentary about termite colonies and their mounds in Africa. Turns out that termite hive mind is just about as fascinating as bee hive mind. I enjoyed it. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.
