An award-winning documentary tracing the rise of the World Scout Movement.
Eighty years ago, Lt General Robert S. S. Baden-Powell published a handbook intended to build character in British youth. To his surprise Scouting for Boys sparked off the growth of an international movement of Boy Scouts and Girl Guides who acclaimed 'B-P' the Chief Scout of the World.
Historic newsreels, rare archival footage and B-P's own home movies document the triumphs and tragedies of the Scout ideal in this rich and compelling story, that ranges from the playing-fields of Victorian England to the battlefields of World War II. Narrated by John Neville Written by DAVID RAIN and MICHAEL D. MURPHY Produced and directed by MICHAEL D. MURPHY
