Naturwälder: Schatzkisten heimischer Artenvielfalt (in 360°)

Primeval forests do not exist in Germany anymore, because of its long history of forestry. But in a few areas nature is allowed to once again take its course without human influence. Access is restricted and few people are able to see this natural treasure. The VR-Documentary is bringing this moving experience to many. It is mainly intended for pupils who shall learn about the importance of less human interference in nature for biodiversity and the climate. They will question how natural the modern economic forests actually are and hopefully extend that curiosity to other areas in their life.
