Wild Port of Europe - Nature on the Edge

Euroopa metsik sadam - Loodus äärmuses

Hedgehogs, polecats, lesser black-backed gulls, kestrels, rabbits and even seals and exotic Chinese mitten crabs. Wild Port of Europe – Nature on the edge takes you into the unexpected story of these and other animals living in Europe’s largest and busiest port area. In a landscape where humans are constantly changing everything, amid the steel factories, storage tanks, container ships, giant cranes and sprawling railroad lines, the animals seize their opportunities and often make remarkable choices in the process. While Wild Port of Europe shows that survival in such a highly industrialized environment is a life on the edge for wildlife, the film also mirrors nature’s challenges back to the human world, for we share a mutual uncertain future.
