The Dis-Enchantments
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WILDERNESS GOES VIRAL?
The Dis-Enchantments--a documentary film produced by North Forty Productions--is an eye-opening, soul-searching film asking the hard questions:
How long can short-term, stopgap solutions continue to fall on the shoulders of local community volunteers striving to uphold wilderness protections that federal agencies can no longer fully support? How much access is too much? And can Wilderness survive the age of social media?
Through the personal journeys of Wilderness guardians and the social media influencers who have “discovered” the Enchantments, the film conveys the urgency of this moment. It is designed to inspire viewers to take action, to demand the investment of the resources needed to meet wilderness mandates, to support access limits in the most threatened ecosystems, and to join local conservation efforts before it's too late.
