Check out this environmental documentary, part of this year's Forest City Film Festival!
Nothing less than an antidote to pessimism, URBAN FOREST explores the benefits of citizen-driven nature-restoration projects taking place in cities across Canada.
What happens when all our trees are cut down? How will we live when our forests don’t exist anymore? URBAN FORESTS centers around the essential green spaces in Montreal, QB, focusing on their connection to Indigenous cultures. Conversation-style interviews provide useful information about tree types and their impacts on the environment. Experts recommend strategies for tree preservation and build community support through urban forestry programs.
Directed by Anne-Marie Rocher, this film recognizes the value of nature in society and inspires people to make a difference. Through emotional seminars and beautiful landscape footage, URBAN FORESTS leaves viewers with one question—will they stand by and watch as trees are being destroyed, or will they be the change?
