Film is an Alberta Pacific Forest Industries educational video. As described on the video case: "The forest is no longer recognized as just a place where trees grow; it is an ecosystem with many other values besides just trees. Ecosystem management, a new way of seeing the forest which recognizes the importance of biodiversity and multiple uses of the forest, is replacing traditional forestry practices. This video is intended to provide an overview of the principles of ecosystem management to new loggers contracted to Alberta-Pacific. As forest management evolves, so must the people who harvest the forest, as it is they who will ultimately determine its success."
