Bruno Manser from Basel was one of the best-known environmentalists of his time. He lived in the Borneo jungle for six years with the Penan, whom he supported in their fight against the deforestation of their habitat. In May 2000, he disappeared without a trace in the jungle and was later declared missing. The film shown on this evening by director Niklas Hilbert is based on the impressive life story of Manser, who was not only an environmentalist but also a passionate naturalist and human rights activist.
