Academy Award winner Susan Sarandon narrates the remarkable, inspiring
story of how a rugged pocket of America’s Pacific Northwest has
endured 150 years of logging, mining, and dam-building to remain one
of the largest strongholds of old-growth forest in the nation.
Filmed in more than a dozen wilderness areas and national monuments, A
Wild American Forest showcases the Klamath-Siskiyou’s natural splendor
and vividly illustrates why this area is recognized as a globally
significant bioregion. Learn more at www.awildamericanforest.org,
where a listing of public television showings is also available.
“A Wild American Forest” will also be screening at the Siskiyou Film
Fest in Grants Pass, Oregon on January 29th. For more information on
