Forest films
The curated forests films from the UN Forum on Forests film festivals feature community leaders who have inspired change through innovative approaches to afforestation and reducing land degradation. Others provide further insight on the diverse values and benefits of forests, their relation to people and the planet we share.
We feature various winners of the Short Film Contest such as ‘Amazing Grace Rowan’ by Pybus of South Africa, ‘An Unseen World’ by Paul Rosolie, ‘Feel Like a Mountain’ Elio Alonso Vasquez Miranda, ‘Ma Forêt’ by Sébastien Pins, and ‘Reynaldo’ by Dan Childs and Nick Werber of the United Kingdom.
