A Voice for the Wilderness
It includes wonderful footage of the ancient Antarctic Beech forests and their wildlife. It was a pivotal tool in the campaign to Save the Rainforests, a battle which concluded in the creation of new National Parks in NSW and ended rainforest logging there.
It was a groundbreaking film and was the first environmental film ever to be screened on commercial television.
A Voice for the Wilderness was launched at the Sydney Opera House in 1983 and screened on Channel 7 in 1984 and 1986 and reviewed as:
....a tender, quick-moving and beautiful documentary”by environmental editor Joseph Glascott in the Sydney Morning Herald.
