A call from the wild

Asgeir Helgestad

81 min – Norway – 2024

Director Asgeir Helgestad documents the state of nature in his native Norway, which he has been photographing for as long as he can remember. From the bees on his farm to the wild reindeer in the high mountains, and the puffins by the ocean, he reveals the beauty of an endangered natural world and highlights the human actions responsible for its decline. This film is a personal story about our connection with the non-human world, the relationship between the small and the large, and a reminder of nature’s strength and vulnerability.
