The Badgers (2025)

The Badgers delves into the contentious issue of free-roaming sheep as an ancient but contested tradition of the Forest of Dean. As commercialization encroaches upon the forest and a dearth of younger individuals willing to uphold the tradition emerges, this age-old practice faces jeopardy. Through the perspective of the badgers, the narrative navigates between observation, interviews, and sensory immersion, offering a exploration of the stakes for this unique community.
