Two men, thirty years apart. Bruno Manser, a Swiss shepherd who walked into the Sarawak rainforest in 1984, lived six years with the nomadic Penan, then led their blockades against the logging companies and became a wanted man before vanishing in 2000.

One tried to save a world, one made a living off its dispersal, and Hoffman refuses to make either of them simple.
