WHRO -TV ATHENS, OHIO - WOUB-TV (MORE STATIONS TO BE ADDED) ******* SAVIORS OF THE FOREST Two California freelance camera guys, tired of shooting the same old stuff, head off to South America to make a film that will help save the rainforest there. But what starts out as a simple "find the bad guys" movie turns into an uplifting portrait of the everyday people who are making "sustainable" forestry a reality. From the opening chainsaw montage in the jungle, to a climatic raid on a shipment of rainforest timber bound for Hollywood movie sets, SAVIORS OF THE FOREST is funny, serious, and inspiring. ********** SAVIORS OF THE FOREST BEST OF THE FESTIVAL Louisville Film Festival BEST DOCUMENTARY Chicago Film Festival GOLDEN GATE AWARD San Francisco Film Festival SILVER MEDALIST Sinking Creek Film Festival BEST DOCUMENTARY(Nomination) Hawaii International Film Festival ********** SAVIORS OF THE FOREST Alexander Cockburn and Susanna Hecht, authors of "Fate of the Forest" have said that SAVIORS "Thankfully lacks the sermonizing self-importance of so many other eco-documentaries... brilliantly shows the paradoxes that challenge simplistic accounts of the way tropical forests disappear and how they can be saved..." "Brilliant documentary filmmaking" says New University press "Irreverant & Funny" says San Francisco Chronicle "Our kind of film" Earth Island Journal For additional info contact Camera Guys PO Box 691624 Los Angeles, Ca. 90069 Ph 310-828-5662 Fax 310-829-9876
