Why Not Scotland (59mins) 2024

Why Not Scotland? is a feature-length documentary which forms a central part of the Scottish Rewilding Alliance’s Rewilding Nation campaign. The film accompanies Flo, a young Scot from Glasgow, on an intensely personal journey, as she seeks out examples of nature recovery around Europe.

Like many of her generation, Flo is concerned by the state of nature and fearful about an uncertain future. However, during her travels, she discovers places where nature is making a spectacular comeback, breathing life back into the landscape and revitalising human communities. Encouraged by these stories of hope and renewal, she is prompted to wonder: Why Not Scotland?

Filmed during the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, Why Not Scotland? showcases many of the transformational changes already happening elsewhere in Europe and presents the exciting possibility of Scotland enjoying a similar revival. The film will be released in spring 2024, beginning with a nationwide screening tour.

Why Not Scotland? has been produced on behalf of the Scottish Rewilding Alliance with support from: Trees for Life, Rewilding Britain,The European Nature Trust, Rewilding Europe, Woodland Trust Scotland and Kilchoan Estate.

We'll also have:

Delicious (mostly) organic vegan curries from Fergus Bradbeer aka Vegie Vortex (who also does the curries at Beach and Barnicott), plus hot and cold drinks.

Please note:

Our room hire costs £42/ week so if you're able to able to contribute more than the default ticket amount then please do so.

We also need to ensure enough people come along to make it worthwhile for Fergus to keep coming along to cook up the delicious food - so invite a friend!

Many thanks in advance. Together We Have Everything.
