ABOUT THE FILM

“Art is a language…more effective than words”, so RainCoast Conservation Foundation brought artists to the fragile, isolated rainforest coast of British Columbia. We are privy to the astounding beauty as the artists soak it in, creating works that will bring the attention of the world to the dangers of shipping oil in this area. Economic forces are powerful, and the artists may lose clients because of their activism. But for us, their images are a celebration, a warning and an inspiration to ensure they don’t become a record of a vanished place.
