Synopsis
NORTHERN WOODS is an entertaining and diverse time trip by the centuries. The film starts in spring and ends in wintertime. Four Chapters also tell us about the history of mankind.
NORTHERN WOODS is a fascinating documentary and a tribute to the Nordic forest: The film shows his development from a primeval wood to a cultivated forest. Once he was populated by wild animals such as wolves, bears, eagles, deer or musk oxen. Complex re-enactment-scenes shot by dollies and helicopter show also the colonization of the forest by the Celts and Germans. Today, the northern forest is often a victim of environmental degradation and overexploitation.
