Director Biography - Christian Jacob Eisenbarth

Christian is from a small town in in rural Wyoming.

Having a background in music, sound design, and photography, gave him a unique story telling perspective. He has always had a passion for nature and protecting the environment.

Director Statement

My name is Christian, this film was inspired by a 2 day solo trip I took to Washington to visit the Olympic Peninsula to go to a rain forest for the first time. I had never seen a place more beautiful in my life; to my dismay, I discovered that most of Washington is victim to commerical logging, completely destroying the natural habitat.  The stark contrast between life and death deeply inspired me that I needed to do something to stop this.  While in the forest, I had a vision of an old man experiencing his last day on earth, an idea I felt could help rebuild this devastated ecosytem and touch the heart of millions. I felt chosen by nature to be the vessel in which this story is brought to life.
