"In Search of Forest" - Deforestation in Indonesia - Part 1

One of the most thrilling, informative and yet amusing documentaries about the subject of deforestation ever made!

Translation of Starting Quote: "Die Güter der Erde können unserem Triebe nach Glückseligkeit keine Genugtuung verschaffen" = "The goods of the earth cannot fulfill our drive for bliss"

An informative documentary about deforestation and, yet, an amusing roadmovie through Indonesia! This film intends to look into the main causes of forest destruction, its effects on the country and, most importantly, how we can improve the situation.

Simultaneously this film forms the eco-political background to our next major project to save Papua's forests from the same destruction that Sumatra and Borneo have witnessed: "Berlin Chennai Papua -- Eurasian Cyclocross".

This is not a good thing: Who is behind getting rid of the tree's and polluting water and the earth. The people say they are afraid the foreigners want their tree's , that is Propaganda, that is what they want you to believe while the elites are in this to kill humans. We need forest and wildlife that used to live in it. All being killed and we are next on the extinction list. Wake up. this is a global problem. I am sooo very sorry that these forest are gone , I live in America ,makes me sad:(
