This fall, IU Cinema, CanopyBloomington (Canopy) and its partners—including the Center for Documentary Research and Practice, Environmental Futures, Environment, Society & Sustainability Institute, ReWild, City of Bloomington's Office of Sustainability, Urban Greenspace and Urban Forestry Teams, Environmental Resilience Institute and others—invite the community into a two-part cinematic journey. Together, these screenings explore how forests, whether imagined or urban, nurture us and how we, in turn, are called to nurture them.
