“Green Porno is a series of short scientific stories, made with a great sense of humor and fantasy. This is what we artists do. We tell serious things in the most accessible, entertaining way, and Isabella is a very progressive and talented artist.”
-Robert Redford
“As a storyteller, Isabella is at once an awestruck little girl and a regal beauty with a hair-trigger laugh and a taste for the Grand Guignol. She is frank, practical, perceptive, refreshingly morbid and always surprising”-Guy Maddin

In and effort to protect one of the greatest wetlands on the planet, a massive restoration plan has been initiated. If successful, the needs of the environment and the needs of millions of people will be met. If it fails – the survival of South Florida hangs in the balance. Join a team of scientists and explorers as they plunge into the heart of the Everglades to learn about what’s happened to this once great place and what’s being done to restore and protect it.
