"The Intelligence of Trees"

A forester in Germany, Peter Wohlleben, observed that trees in his region communicate with each other, lovingly caring for their offspring, their elders, and neighboring trees when they are sick. He wrote the bestseller "The Hidden Life of Trees" (which sold over 1 million copies), which amazed nature lovers. His claims have been confirmed by scientists at the University of British Columbia in Canada. This documentary shows the meticulous and fascinating work of scientists, necessary for understanding the interactions between trees and the consequences of this discovery. A film by Julia Dordel and Guido Tölke, distributed by Jupiter Films.
