Once Upon a Time in a Forest – UK Green Film Festival

Film Festival
Saturday 28th June 2025

Young people seamlessly weave into the fabric of nature, swim in crystalline lakes and revel in the calm presence of the ancient trees. But this idyllic harmony is imperiled as the forest faces man-made extinction. Driven by her love for the forest, 22-year-old Ida becomes the leader of the new Forest Movement. She comes face to face with industry giants and confronts generational bias. Unfolding as a modern fairy tale in the enchanting embrace of the Finnish forest, Once Upon a Time in a Forest is a hopeful ode to nature and its protectors.

Once Upon a Time in a Forest is directed by Virpi Suutari.

This film is recommended for viewers aged +12 years.
