Clayoquot Action presents: Earth Day Movie Screening - THE GIANTS
The epic fight to save ancient forests!
THE GIANTS explores the intertwined fates of trees and humans in a poetic portrait of environmentalist Bob Brown and the Forest.
From a seedling to forest elder: the film is a masterclass that draws on Bob’s 50 years of inspiring activism, from the Franklin campaign for Tasmania’s last wild river, to today’s battle for the Tarkine rainforest. Told in Bob’s own words, his story is interwoven with the extraordinary life cycle of Australia’s giant trees, brought to the screen with stunning award-winning cinematography and immersive animated forest landscapes.
One of Australia's most successful documentaries of 2023, the film inspired national rallies, put deforestation on the political agenda, and mobilized countless individuals and community groups to stand up for forests.
As temperatures rise and wildfires engulf our ancient forests, from Canada to Australia, THE GIANTS is a love letter to the trees.
