Understorey follows the extraordinary decades-long campaigns to protect the biodiverse-rich, internationally-significant forests of south-east New South Wales. The film traverses the rise of a large-scale social movement, which grew from humble beginnings and a few dedicated conservationists in the 1960s through to its peak in the 1980s and 1990s when woodchipping for export to Japan, first commenced in the 1970s, expanded into the Tantawangalo and Coolangubra forests and prompted widespread opposition. The film goes for approximately half an hour.

Tallaganda is a captivating & stunning short film featuring breathtaking nocturnal footage of the endangered Greater Glider residing in the southern forests of NSW. Using innovative filming techniques, the documentary captures the natural behaviour of gliders and a variety of other nocturnal species in their natural habitat. The film goes for approximately half an hour.

Tallaganda is part of The Great Southern Forest, a large National Park in south eastern NSW proposed by the National Parks Association (NPA).

Following the screening is a Q&A session/discussion with film maker David Gallan and proposal author Kate Carroll, both of NPA.

Come along and be inspired by how researchers, landholders and the community can work together to conserve the south east forests of NSW and Australia's largest gliding mammal and critical habitats.
