THE GIANTS (2023)

THE GIANTS explores the intertwined fates of trees and humans in this poetic, cinematic portrait of environmentalist Bob Brown and the Forest.

The film draws on emerging science about trees and Brown's experiences of activism to inspire a new chapter in our relationship with trees. From a seedling to forest elder, draw 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 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 mobalised countless individuals and community groups to stand up for forests.
