The Giants (out Apr 20) is an Australian documentary which is partly about the life of Bob Brown, and partly about the way trees play a critical role within the environment. Not a lot of new material (other docos have covered parts of this) but it provides a succinct, interesting look at its subjects. Grade: B.
