The Forest Trust

Virtual Rurality

The Forest Trust (now the Earthworm Foundation) run a scheme called Rurality, which is all about promoting sustainable oil palm farming through education. This 360º documentary-style film forms part of that education – enabling stakeholders to see life through the eyes of workers on an active plantation and to see how Rurality helps. I headed to Ghana with a DOP to interview and capture the stories of the people out there. It was a fantastic experience that turned into a five minute immersive experience narrated by the key people I met. This in turn has been shown internationally by the charity, helping bring a focus to Rurality from Malaysia to West Africa.
