GRITtv: Got Docs? A Quest to Find "The Forest"
Swedish filmmaker Jacob Andrn bought a few acres of rainforest as a primary school child. Along with 400,000 other Swedish schoolchildren and many others across the world, he raised money to keep the rainforest protected from development. As an adult, he decided to find out if the forest he supported was still there. "The Forest" is the story of Jacob's journey halfway across the world, to Costa Rica, to track down his patch of rainforest and to figure out, along the way, whether one person's small contribution can make a difference. Thanks to WG Film for the clip.

Thank you!!!
I too bought rain forest in the 90's with my classmates in Sweden and have many times wondered if it really made a difference, but never had the brilliant idea to actually find out. You did it for me. Thank you so much!! I was recently in Costa Rica for vacation and did take a trip into the rain forest as well. It is a wonderful place.
