When Vienna travels to the Atlanta forest to protest the construction of a facility critics call “Cop City,” she finds a community, love — and a cause. But over the next few months, as tensions mount between forest-dwelling activists and a state intent on their removal, everything she holds dear will be ripped from her hands. From Wondery, Campside, and Tenderfoot TV, We Came to the Forest is a modern story of love, loss, and what it means to put your body on the line for a cause.

This is a co-production from Wondery, Campside Media, and Tenderfoot TV.
