SAVIORS OF THE FOREST is a breakthrough film -- With refreshing
humor in an area dominated by bleak doomsday films, SAVIORS OF THE
FOREST, shows Bill and Terry, two freelance Camera Guys, heading
for Ecuador to make a film that will help save the rainforest
there. What results is a topsy-turvy tour of the jungle as the
Camera Guys hunt for heroes and villains, only to find they're up
a river without a clue -- encountering a world where
environmentalists are trying to import saw mills and lumber
companies are campaigning for tree planting projects. Before it
is all over, this irreverent expose/diary, transforms itself into
a film about idealism, corruption, and more than anything else,
the individual growth of its makers. From the opening chainsaw
montage, to a raid on a shipment of rainforest timber bound for
Hollywood movie sets SAVIORS OF THE FOREST saws its big subject -
the rainforest - down to human scale with honesty and humor.
