An Irish Atlantic Rainforest
Eoghan Daltun
In 2009, Dublin sculptor Eoghan Daltun abandoned city life for a derelict 73-acre farm on the Beara Peninsula. The land is ecologically damaged: overgrazed and choking with invasive species. His radical solution? To step back and let nature heal itself. This immersive environmental documentary chronicles ecological resurrection as native woodlands surge from barren ground, rare species return, and biodiversity explodes. The film poses urgent questions about humanity's place in nature in an age of climate crisis and biodiversity loss.
