Swedish filmmaker Jacob Andr?n bought a few acres of rainforest as a primary school child. Along with 400,000 other Swedish schoolchildren and many others across the world, he raised money to keep the rainforest protected from development. As an adult, he decided to find out if the forest he supported was still there. The Forest is the story of Jacob's journey halfway across the world, to Costa Rica, to track down his patch of rainforest and to figure out, along the way, whether one person's small contribution can make a difference. Thanks to WG Film for the clip.
