- DirectorJordan OsmondAntoinette WilsonFools and Dreamers tells the story of Hinewai Nature Reserve and its kaitiaki/manager of 30 years, botanist Hugh Wilson. We learn about the commitment of Hugh and the Maurice White Native Forest Trust to regenerate marginal, hilly farmland into native forest, using a minimal interference method that allows nature to do the work, giving life to over 1500 hectares of native forest, waterways, and the creatures that live within them. When, in 1987, Hugh let the local community know about his plans to allow gorse to grow as a nurse canopy for self-sown native trees, the response was sceptical at best and outright angry and disparaging for the most part - one farmer stating the plan was the sort to be expected only of "fools and dreamers". Now considered a local hero by town and country folk alike, Hugh's home at Hinewai overlooks a valley resplendent in native forest canopy, where birds and other wildlife are abundant and 47 known waterfalls are in permanent flow. An inspiring, charismatic personality, Hugh's passion and enthusiasm for his life's project come through in every sentence he speaks. A dreamer who has made his dream come true, Hugh has proven without doubt that nature knows best - and that he is no fool.

- DirectorAndrea TriveroDaniel Balima is a senior horticulturist from Tenkodogo, a small Sub-Saharan African town in Burkina Faso, where he lives with his large family and has worked since he was born 67 years ago. Daniel as a child falls ill with polio and, although growing without the use of his legs, he is able to follow his father in the family nursery, walking on his hands. In over fifty years of activity he has given life to more than a million trees and this is what is most important for Daniel because, as he tells us, his country, because of the drought, needs many trees and does not stop, on the contrary.... he dreams of planting another million.
- DirectorFrançois-Xavier DrouetOnce symbols of wild nature, forests are undergoing an unprecedented phase of industrialization. The loss of traditional know-how, the imprudent use of fertilizers and pesticides, as well as monoculture, which follow the contemporary agricultural model, have led to a dreadful reality. A documentary that urges us to think if we really want to transform our oxygen providers into green deserts.
