NEWS BRIEF: Germany’s ZDF Studios is expanding its international catalogue of premium nature and wildlife documentaries by taking on worldwide distribution of Lord Howe Island – Reset of Paradise (1×60’) from internationally acclaimed wildlife filmmaker Florian Guthknecht.

The film takes viewers to a remote island in the Pacific Ocean with a biodiversity unique in the world, both on land and underwater and the efforts of the locals to rid it of invasive rodent species which threatened to destroy its ecological balance. Guthknecht has been charting the work for two decades and his first major film about the island for ZDF and Arte, Lord Howe Island – Pacific Eden (1 50’), is also distributed by ZDF Studios.
