Secrets of the Carpathians: The Immortal Forest 2017

Directed by Erik Baláž · Documentary · 52 min

Over the last few millennia, the European countryside has changed more than we can imagine. We drained wetlands, regulated rivers, cut down or transformed forests, exterminated large animals. And yet, there is one place that hardly changes. The Immortal Forest grows from the rocky soil below Kriváň. Its rulers are the centuries-old Arolla pines and their eternal guide, the bear.
