Our Land dares to tread where few have trespassed before. The film seamlessly juxtaposes the two sides of the debate around our access to nature, giving voice to different perspectives: those fighting for greater access to the countryside and the landowners who claim to be stewards of the land. Through organised mass trespass events, the Right to Roam movement sets out to increase public access to nature, but finds itself in conflict with England's landowners.
Blending history with an eye on the future, the film challenges age-old beliefs around property that have shaped our relationship with the land for over a thousand years. As the battle for nature continues the film asks the vital question, who truly has the right to roam?
