She has just completed co-directing and co-producing documentary feature The Bough Breaks with Danny Strong. At its heart, is the work of visionary conservationist and ecologist, Alan Watson Featherstone, and his charity Trees For Life (which has been restoring Scotland's ancient Caledonian Forest since the 1980s).It explores the broader subject of Rewilding and the valuable contribution it makes in tackling some of the global conservation and climate issues, currently threatening life on Earth. It also discusses the urgency for more individual responsibility in the stewardship of our planet and the enormous legacy one man can gift to the future, by staying true to his personal vision.
