THE BURNING SEASON:

"The
Burning Season" is an award-winning film about solving
the problems of habitat loss, pollution and climate change in the
forests of Indonesia through the innovative work of a young Australian
entrepreneur.
Whereas many documentaries focus on the problems, this film focuses on the way forward. Although an early 50 minute test version of the documentary had a limited release last year, a full and updated 90 minute version will be released theatrically in June/July 2009. This award-winning documentary is already gaining significant acclaim around the globe (see the below links for more details). Narrated by Hugh Jackman, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, and receiving a prestigious invitation to screen at Robert De Niro's Tribeca Film Festival, it is not to be missed! BookEnd will host the Australian launch of the documentary at a gala event in Hobart on June 1 - the first public showing of the full documentary anywhere in Australia. If you would like to register your interest in the launch, please email info@bookendtrust.com or call Niall Doran on 0409 222 133. |
