Escapade Media to launch Planet Fungi's new documentary film Follow The Rain at Mipcom
Escapade Media announces exquisite new documentary Follow the Rain, created by Planet Fungi, will launch to international buyers at upcoming MIPCOM.

Currently available on Netflix across Australia and New Zealand, the 1 x 79’ / 1 x 60’ film which follows the rain to discover both known and new fungi species, was produced in 4K by world famous fungi hunters, filmmaker Catherine Marciniak and renown photographer Stephen Axford.

Escapade Media has secured global rights to this extraordinary film and will offer both a feature length version and a one-hour version, in 4K and HD, in Cannes.

Natalie Lawley, CEO Escapade Media comments, “We are delighted to share this exceptional piece of film-making with our clients at MIPCOM. Follow the Rain is an exploration of the world of fungi as you have never seen it. Combining a decade of research and passion, Stephen and Catherine’s mesmerising fungi time-lapses and footage creates the most incredible fungal stories in a captivating and exceptional film – it is a truly spellbinding watch for international audiences.”

Follow The Rain is a fungi adventure that takes us into some of the oldest landscapes in Australia, to explore the critical role fungi play on earth and how they can help humans in the fight against climate change. It includes a journey into the world of zombie fungus hunting, a dig into the hidden trading deals between fungi and trees, a 10-year investigation to name a new species and an exposé of the rain-making fungal life of a desert. The audience also goes behind the scenes into Stephen and Catherine’s world of fungi photography and time-lapse, sharing in their discoveries along the way. It’s a pioneering fungi safari with breath-taking imagery that unearths the foundation of life down under.
