The craft of fire management requires years of dedication and study.
Understanding fire is done best out in the field.
One has to go outside and do the work.
Into Nature Films worked for over a year to capture Dr. Eric Menges’ 30 years of dedication to understanding the powerful force that is fire.
The result of this partnership between researcher, filmmaker, and fire will fascinate you.
This film reveals extraordinary beauty of the Ecology of Fire by documenting some of Florida’s rarest plants and their relationship with the power of fires.
The stunning landscape after the fire passes is a compelling story of resilience with a lesson we all need to learn…
No matter how powerful the disturbance, there is a way to survive well.
There are other lessons in the film as well.
These lessons transcend tedious measurements and data.
The legacy within this story may be equally important as science well-done.
The story of dedication and commitment and a legacy of mentorship.
A story we can all learn…
This film is dedicated to those who expose their skin to the flame.
Outstanding! Thank you for creating this film and of course your dedication to fire ecology, research, and Florida’s wildlife.
Sincerely,
Bryan Ames
