A journey deep into the great forests of planet Earth reveals a new way of looking at wild places and the people and animals that live there. In the Amazon, Sanjayan travels deep into an uncharted area known as the intangible zone, home to previously “uncontacted” tribes. From there, he travels to British Columbia’s Great Bear Rainforest where he captures rarely filmed wolf behavior. Then it is on to Portugal’s cork forests and finally, Sumatra, where frightening elephant battles are exploding. Viewers will discover that today, Earth’s great forests home to a surprising number of people and very likely supported vastly larger human populations in the past. What do these human forest dwellers know about how people can sustain the great forests – forests that, in turn, sustain the world?
