Filmmaker Ian McAllister has lived and worked in this majestic rainforest for 30 years as he is passionate about the preservation of this globally significant environment–the world’s largest intact temperate rainforest. To make this film, he had to overcome a number of challenges, such as harsh weather, unpredictable wildlife and the inconvenience of working in such a remote location far removed from modern life.
My oldest daughter, whom I call Big Sis, is 10 years old and together we watched this movie last weekend at the Orlando Science Center and we really enjoyed it! Big Sis is really into documentaries right now so I knew it would be a treat for us both to see it on a big screen together. It is 45 minutes of memorizing footage that reminds us all how small we are and how important it is we take care of animals and nature so that they are not lost forever. Great Bear Rainforest will bring you as close as you can get to this magicalenvironment, where you’ll discover what it means to be truly wild.
