Curious about direct political action, and eager to discover the personalities behind the banners, the filmmakers set up home among the trees. They follow a protest against Wales' LNG pipeline - from unimpressive beginnings to its dramatic end.

Really interesting film. I thought the filmmakers were very brave and committed to do this. Wished it was longer really, wanted to get to know more about the different protestors. Well done.

Excellent and well edited. We often forget that hardcore protest has been instrumental in shaping our society (e.g. votes for women, employee rights, access to open countryside or the “right to roam”). Here is another example of people who care enough about an issue that they will endure such hardships to bring it to our attention. This short film wets the appetite and makes me want to find out more about these individuals, the issue and what they experienced in the Brecon Beacons.

Wonderful to see how a mixed group of people care enough about our environment that they endure the hardship of camping on site for months to bring it to the attention of the wider community. A lesson to us all that we should care more for our countryside. Great piece of information. Loved it.

Yup totally agree - this is an excellent pod! What I really liked was the whole skip raiding idea...what a waste of food! Shameful especially when so many people go to bed hungry on a night. What a needless waste.

This is brilliant- highly recommended - great access, great characters and stories - all the elements of a fantastic pod are there! This upload will hopefully be part of our tribes season which will air on Current TV in the UK from 18th-20th July...
