Julia's prediction about getting media attention turns out to be right on, but she never anticipated that they would focus on her more than they focus on the forest she and her colleagues are fighting to save. Julia deals with the negative side effects of being depicted as a superhero.

This award-winning documentary reveals the extraordinary transformation and spiritual journey of a 23-year-old woman who climbed 200 feet up into a redwood tree and lived there for two years in order to save the thousand-year-old-tree from destruction. Julia lived on a platform the size of a coffee table, survived the ordeal of menacing helicopters, and was nearly blown off the tree and thrown to the forest floor by 90 MPH winds. As a result of her courageous act of civil disobedience, Julia is the youngest person thus far inducted into the Ecology Hall of Fame.
