Renowned ecologist Nalini Nadkarni studies "what grows back” after a ecological disturbance in the rainforest canopy. As a child, trees provided a place of solace and safety to Nadkarni, so much so that she swore an oath to protect them. After surviving a life-threatening fall from a tree, she must turn her research question onto herself to explore the effects of disturbance and recovery throughout her own life.

    I agree with the other two comments. Nalini inspires me. She is my new hero. And her love of trees mirrors mine though she is far more fluent in the language of trees than I am. I love this film. Thank you so much for making it available.

    I was inspired from the very beginning. The connection between trees and humans being damaged makes so much sense as everything is connected, we just forget that. Profoundly moving on many levels.

    Metaphorically, the fact that trees are negatively affected by external disturbances but can still heal completely matches her and her experiences. She turned into a tree. She is like a vibrant tree, a true inspiration, an awe. Hats off..

  • Get to know the life and work of Nalini Nadkarni.
  • Like Nalini, many children must create ways to survive traumatic disturbances of dysfunctional families. There is a recovery fellowship, a sanctuary and path of 12 Step recovery.
  • What being is your sanctuary in this human existence between earth and sky? Honor that being in some way.
