"Butterfly" ,which first aired on public television in 2000, is a documentary film directed by Doug Wolens about the environmental heroine, Julia Butterfly Hill who has gained the attention of the world for her 2-year vigil 180 feet atop an ancient redwood tree preventing it from being clear-cut.

Although it's easy to view BUTTERFLY as a film about the environmental movement, forest issues or of course about Julia Butterfly, at its heart the film is really about what each of us can achieve, the greatness we can all become. [http://www.butterflyfilm.net/notes.htm Butterfly Long Synopsis]
