About the Film:
When pioneering environmentalist Rachel Carson published Silent Spring in 1962, the backlash from her critics thrust her into the center of a political maelstrom. In A SENSE OF WONDER, actress Kaiulani Lee embodies this extraordinary woman, portraying Carson in the final year of her life. Intimate and poignant, this 55-minute, documentary-style film is a reflection of Carson as she emerges as America’s most successful advocate for the natural world.
