This screening will be followed by a pre-recorded Q&A with director/producer Andrew Nadkarni and main participant Nalini Nadkarni.
Renowned ecologist Nalini Nadkarni pioneered climbing techniques to study "what grows back” after an ecological disturbance in the rainforest canopy. After surviving a life-threatening fall from a tree, Nalini explores a new research subject - herself. As she prepares to climb again, Nalini untangles the roots of her past to examine the ripple effects of disturbance throughout her life. In an attempt to heal, she revisits the site of her fall, where her past, present, and future converge.
