More than just an adrenaline-pumping adventure story of two young men crossing half the planet,The Art of Adventure<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0maps out how Bateman and Foster\u2019s trip inspired a love of nature that would last a lifetime. The film interweaves an account of their travels with a look their lives through the decades that followed: Bateman became a world renowned wildlife painter and Foster a prominent biologist and the first director of BC\u2019s Ecological Reserves program.
Through in-depth interviews with friends and family and the original 16mm film footage of their incredible journey, director Alison Reid<\/em><\/strong> shows how the trip expanded the pair\u2019s knowledge of the physical world while deepening their spiritual and emotional connection to it. A heartwarming, inspirational love letter to the adventure of life itself.<\/p>\n
