Based on the book THE LEGACY OF LUNA, by Julia Butterfly
Hill
LOG LINE: The
true story of Julia Butterfly Hill’s one woman
crusade to save the ancient redwoods.
SYNOPSIS: After
surviving a nearly fatal car crash Julia heads west
to the redwood forests of northern California. There
she meets up with a group of environmentalists organizing
against the timber industry to save the endangered
redwood, Luna, as well as the forests that surround
Luna. Julia decides that the only way she can save
Luna is to climb up her branches and remain there,
some two hundred feet from the ground, until someone
takes notice. Two years and a series of unforgettable
adventures later, through personal dedication, and
unequivocal passion for a greater good, Julia redefines
the scope of environmentalism. Julia’s heroic
battle has become a rallying cry for wildlife preservation
around the globe.
