There is a war going on against nature and wildlife. Behind closed doors, deals are made, laws are passed and nature often comes out on the losing end against greed and power. Iowa filmmaker Kevin Railsback presents a series of short films ranging in subject from Africa's great plains to Iowa's prairies, showcasing the beauty of nature in hopes that people will raiser their voices to save what is left before it's too late. Railsback will discuss his filming techniques and answer questions. Featured films include The River; Africa: A Moment in Time; The Prairie; Silent Kingdom; Wild No More and others.
