A gripping frontline dive into the lives of activists urgently blocking logging roads on Vancouver Island, Canada, in a do-or-die attempt to stop old-growth logging in the pristine Fairy Creek valley. When police begin arresting people for standing in the way of forestry workers, thousands more protestors flock to the woods to participate in a dramatic and historic stand-off now recognized as Canada's largest act of civil disobedience. Following a cast of blockaders, Indigenous land defenders and loggers, the film takes an insider look at the rise and fall of the Fairy Creek blockade, and examines activism and land defense in an era of climate collapse.

Mark Jackson Epoch Times Fairy Creek is a minuscule bit of wilderness; the last sanctuary of pristine old-growth forest, containing an enormous degree of biodiversity. Cue the two-stroke-engine din of industrial-strength chainsaws roaring to life. That’s the movie in a nutshell. Rated: 4/5 Jun 21, 2025 Full Review Kent Hill Film Threat What Fairy Creek cries louder than all the other messages contained within its running time is that we cannot sit by idly any longer and watch the systematic annihilation of the environmental wonders of this small planet we inhabit. Rated: 8.5/10 Mar 7, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
