Set along the storied River Tweed, perhaps the most prolific salmon river in the UK, this visually stunning short film explores Scotland’s deep-rooted bond with Atlantic Salmon, an icon as cherished as red stags and whisky now threatened with extinction. Hosted by Tweedswood ghillie Phil Ellis, alongside a team of passionate biologists and conservationists, the film captures the dedication of those striving to save this essential species as it faces unprecedented decline. Against a backdrop of breathtaking Scottish landscapes, these guardians of the Tweed voice their love and concern for the salmon, the river, and the communities that rely on them. They confront the pressing ecological threats endangering salmon, warning of possible extinction within 15 years. Somber yet hopeful, the film honors the relentless commitment of those who, despite the odds, continue fighting to protect a vital part of Scotland’s heritage and ecosystem.
