FEATURE DOCUMENTARY
The fires of Australia’s Black Summer are recognised as the worst wildlife disaster in modern history, killing and displacing three billion animals. Following hard-working carers, dedicated scientists and passionate volunteers, Wild Australia: After the Fires charts the ecological recovery of Australia, through stories of hope, human intervention and resilience. In the year that follows the fires, life slowly returns to the scorched bushlands of Australia.
Narrated by Hugo Weaving, the film provides an urgent message to safeguard our environment and bring about the necessary intervention required to maintain biodiversity on our hotter, more fiery planet, before it is too late.
