What you think about wilderness depends on where you are... Film Australia’s Wilderness journeys across the country from the early 20th century to the present day. Drawing on remarkable films from the Film Australia Library and the Archives Office of Tasmania, this beautifully designed two-DVD set explores the concept of wilderness. In addition to magnificent still photographs, it includes selections from some of the country’s most significant documentaries and an award-winning animation. Interviews cover themes from art to activism – looking at wilderness as something to conquer, treasure, exploit or save. A thought-provoking and visually stunning foray into the Australian wilderness – real and imagined.
