The extraordinary story of Bob Brown and the forest.
Join us at Dendy Newtown on Monday, April 17 at 6:15pm for our Q&A preview screening of the powerful new documentary THE GIANTS followed by an in-person discussion with environmentalist Bob Brown and the filmmakers. Explore the intertwined fates of trees and humans in this poetic and inspiring cinematic portrait of an environmental folk hero and his lifetime of activism.
From a seedling to forest elder THE GIANTS interweaves Bob’s story with the life cycle of the ancient trees he is fighting for in this cinematic portrait of environmental folk hero and gay icon Bob Brown who took green politics to the centre of power.
The hidden life of the forest is brought to life by cameras rigged high in the tree canopy, immersive point cloud animation generated from 3D tree scans, and thought-provoking insights by the likes of David Suzuki and Merlin Sheldrake. Drawing on Bob’s lifetime of activism, from the Franklin to the Tarkine, THE GIANTS ignites an urgent conversation about the right of the Forest to exist and challenges the audience to write the next chapter.
