Wilding - Film about the rewilding of the Knepp Estate
I’ve just written a review of the documentary Wilding — the story of the rewilding project at Knepp Estate in England.
What struck me most is that it’s not really a film about “saving nature”.
It’s a film about control, uncertainty, recovery, and what happens when damaged systems are finally given space to breathe again.
Unlike many climate documentaries, it avoids panic and moralising. Instead, it quietly asks a difficult question:
What if nature already knows how to heal — if we stop overwhelming it?
The film also raises deeper questions about farming, economics, land ownership, resilience, and whether modern society has become too disconnected from living systems to recognise what restoration even looks like anymore.
I found it thoughtful, emotionally grounding, and surprisingly hopeful without pretending everything is fine.
