The Forest In Me

Feature Documentary currently in production / 2021

A mother makes a film for her child as a gift. She shares stories of people cut off from the world to examine how they might stay connected: Agafya Lykova (pictured) survives in remote seclusion in the vast Siberian forest; a crew live isolated in a hi-tech pod on a volcano as a simulation of life on Mars; footage of the child’s life shows him exploring the world for the first time.

The Forest in Me is a warm meditation on the experience of time, and the small, everyday needs and desires that connect people together.
