The Giants
”The Giants” is a biopic of environmentalist Bob Brown, a National Living Treasure, the first openly gay member of parliament in Australia and leader of the world’s first Green party. It’s also about the life of trees, which scientists are only starting to understand. The film goes from Bob's story to the trees’ story – revealing just how closely intertwined they are. It’s a joyous exploration of the Forest delivered in a new, creative and awe-inspiring way.
