Directed by: David Allen
Documentary
Based on Isabella Tree’s bestselling book of the same name, Emmy-award winning filmmaker David Allen’s Wilding is a charming, hopeful story of ecological regeneration.
At Knepp Castle in Sussex, conservation pioneers Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell abandoned industrial farming practices and allowed nature to ‘rewild’ their 3,500-acre estate with remarkable results.
When they inherited the failing 400-year-old estate as a young couple in the ‘80s, Tree and Burrell decided to let nature take back the land in a leap of faith, battling entrenched tradition to do so. The first scheme of its kind in Britain, it became one of the most significant rewilding experiments in all of Europe.
A beacon of hope for British wildlife, Knepp is now home to thriving flora and fauna of all kinds, while Tree and Burrell have evolved from amateur wildlife lovers to dedicated conservationists – both knowledgeable about the catastrophic loss of biodiversity in Britain, and quietly hopeful that work like theirs can reverse the decline.
