Post Description

The main producer of the documentary is Paul Lister and his foundation, The European Nature Trust. Co-producer and host is Charlie Otley, whop embarks on an adventure into the heard of the Carpathian Mountains and the superb, but less known Carpathian forests. This is perhaps Europe’s last great wild area where bears, wolves and lynxes still live.
 
The documentary also explores the area’s troubled history, from the mystical ruins of ancient Dacian civilizations to medieval communities in the area. Trying to find isolated villages, to cross mountains and see bears in the wilderness, Charlie gets to meet a series of picturesque characters, including shepherds, artists, ecologists, artists and even a count.
 
The documentary also includes a brief interview with Prince Charles, who owns property in Transylvania and is known to be a fan of the region.
