The forest industry, the State Forest Management Centre (RMK) and natural scientists who have participated in the forest debate are brought in front of the camera for the first time, in order to gain clarity about what has happened to Estonian forests and what legacy we will leave for future generations. The nature film, shot in more than 60 different places in Estonia, opens the viewer to the current state of Estonian forests and shows how political decisions have affected the use of our common property.
