The filmed-as-it-happened documentary about Christian has had several titles applied to it. "The Lion At World's End", "The Lion Who Thought He Was People", but most commonly it is called "Christian the Lion".

The true story of a lion cub taken from his zoo-caged parents and sold in a London department store, and bought by two of the most understanding men a lion could hope to meet. Named "Christian", this remarkably gentle and intelligent lion became a British celebrity and professional model. As he reached maturity, his owners decided to give him something he was never destined for: freedom to live as a wild lion in Africa. A chance meeting with "Born Free" stars Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna led to an appeal to George Adamson to take Christian and teach him how to be a wild lion.
