Film Synopsis

A Moment of Clarity…

To understand where you live, is to understand if you belong.

An introduced predator, Rattus rattus, is forced to come to terms with the current way
of life in a New Zealand Southern Beech Forest, where the ecology dictates sustainability.

Rattus rattus will show you how he sees the forest he calls home, from the 600 years old beech trees to the tiny root fungus. The astounding beauty of the forest, home to many native birds and insects, is shown from a fresh perspective, letting you question our preconceived opinions, seeing unexpected similarities between our ‘enemies’ and us, while exploring a complex ecology.
