Naked Nature
Produced by Philip Werner

This short interview documentary asks the questions:

– Does being naked make you more connected to the environment?
– Does sexual repression contribute to environmental destruction?

This material was first produced as an assessment task for Environmental Education as part of a Master of Environment at the University of Melbourne. May 2016.

(Publication of this footage has been approved by the board of directors of the Down to Earth Co-operative, the body who organises Confest, where most of the footage was filmed.)

This documentary explores nudity in natural settings, with interviews by riversides amid eucalyptus trees and ferns. A red-haired woman appears fully nude, covered in thick mud as she speaks to the camera. Shirtless men and a mud symbol connect bare skin to environmental themes. Credits feature a black-and-white photo of a nude man by the river.
