Using relief collage animation, artist Jeannie Baker has created a beautiful short film depicting the wilderness area between the Daintree River and Bloomfield in North Queensland, as seen through the eyes of a child. As he wanders through coastal rainforest, he marvels at its ancient magnificence and, without speaking a word, ponders the future of the area.
