A film produced and directed by Katja Torneman
Watch the trailer now.

In a world of climate change and environmental catastrophies, two sisters Anna and Emma and their companions, the California Condors, stand out as a beacon of hope. Together with their father, Chris Parish, the director of the Peregrine Fund at Vermillion Cliffs, and their mother, Ellen Parish, teacher and leader for the environmental organization Roots and Shoots, they fight for the survival of the California Condors.

Learning of and from the condors, as well as from their parents, Anna's and Emma's lives are unique in their growing understanding that if we do not take care of the life surrounding us, we will in the end face the possibility of our own extinction. The California Condors have with their majestic and calm flight shown us the beauty of life itself. As long as they soar the sky there will always be hope for the future.
