Created in Whitefield, Maine, A Peace of Forest is a grand 87 minute film, described by audience members as, “The most beautiful film I have ever seen, exhibiting our natural world,” and “This film is a gift; it is so rich.”
Touted as a quiet film, a Peace of Forest is a one-of-a-kind cinematic adventure, allowing viewers to experience a wild, peaceful and mysterious world that is filled with complex relationships and ways of wonder. A Peace of Forest celebrates the beauty and intimacy of wildlife in Maine with surprising, tender and exquisite interactions of wildlife during undisturbed moments in Maine’s natural world.
Within 70 acres of Maine forest, in Whitefield, lies a world rarely traversed by humans. This is not a wilderness. There are no grand vistas. This ordinary terrain is unremarkable at first glance. Yet, its subdued riches provide crucial habitat for a vast wealth of plants and animals that are often overlooked. Each day in this secretive forest is a pulse, a rhythm; it is a world born of dynamic wonders…. a masterwork of simplistic beauty and peace. Nature speaks without words, but to hear its voice we must listen, look, and ponder.
Experience a journey like no other for a screening of a Peace of Forest on: Saturday, March 29, 2025 at 7:00 pm. at USM’s Hannaford Hall
