Welcome to the Forest – Mind the Gap
Director: Jan Haft
If a former timber plantation is left to nature, trees sometimes die in times of climate change. A strange circumstance always becomes apparent: a once relatively monotonous forest first has to be "destroyed" by storms and beetles for biodiversity to explode. A circumstance that has to do with the light that is now available. At the end, the film describes what happens when a new, resilient forest grows. And what consequences this has for nature.
