Farewell, Beautiful Forest… or How a Film Was Censored

Synopsis

The film reports on the massive forest damage in the Ore Mountains on the Czech-German border and the desperate struggle of foresters and residents to save this landscape. Hope, doubt and an ever-increasing ecological catastrophe are pitted against a blind and deaf doctrinaire state power that denies the facts.
