The Giants explores the intertwined fates of trees and humans in a poetic portrait of environmentalist Bob Brown and the forest. This screening is extra special, with three wonderful advocates joining attendees for an after movie Q&A session: Western Victoria Greens MP Sarah Mansfield, Greens Senator for Victoria Steph Hodgins-May and local forest campaigner Amy Calton.

The screening is at 6pm and the Q&A is at 8pm. Register now, as this event is sure to book out!

From a seedling to forest elder: the film is a masterclass that draws on Bob’s 50 years of inspiring activism, from the Franklin campaign for Tasmania’s last wild river, to today’s battle for the Tarkine rainforest. Told in Bob’s own words, his story is interwoven with the extraordinary life cycle of Australia’s giant trees, brought to the screen with stunning award-winning cinematography and immersive animated forest landscapes.

One of Australia’s most successful documentaries of 2023, the film inspired national rallies, put deforestation on the political agenda, and mobilised countless individuals and community groups to stand up for forests.
