Organized Wilderness
With only 2 percent wild nature, Denmark ranks second as the most cultivated country in the world, right after Bangladesh. This affects the biodiversity that has been dwindling since the 1980's, and now it's time to do something about it. Over four years Phie Ambo has followed the large rewilding project in Hammer Bakker in the Northern Jutland. A large area of production forest is to be transformed into wild nature with grazers, butterflies and maybe even a couple of golden eagles. But how do you make something wild that has been tamed for so long? And how wild do we actually want it to be? "Organized Wilderness" examines how we can salvage the last bits of Danish nature, and how we as humans can find our place in the great narrative of Nature.
