Title: The Last Stand: Ancient Redwoods and the Bottom Line (2000) Color/ 58 min.

PBS Status: Coming soon.

Description: The Last Stand unfolds the tragic ramifications of a fifteen-year battle between environmentalists and the timber industry over the fate of ancient coastal redwoods in Norhtern California. The film's improbable, yet true, tale is one of junk bonds and dying salmon, car bombs and clear-cuts, collusion, corruption and greed. Through testimony from economists, scientists, forest activists and the Humboldt County residents who've seen their communityies and backyards torn apart, The Last Stand questions how we as a society will value our relationship to the environment as we enter the new millennium.

Credits: Directed by Holiday Phelan.
