    • Synopsis
    • The sun is shining, the temperature rising – it’s time for a walk in a park or in a nearby forest. But are city dwellers properly equipped to face the many dangers that await humans in “the wild”? Do city dwellers even know that there are dangers lurking in the woods? This informative documentary explores the poisonous flora and fauna of the world beyond our doorstep.
      Important for nature, but bad for us
      Often it is the most beautiful flowers and berries that are especially poisonous. Some don’t even have to be eaten to cause disastrous results: simply brushing against them might trigger a circulatory collapse among people with allergies. We all know that mushrooms can be deadly – but which ones? And who’s to tell if a dangerous meadow saffron is masquerading as wild garlic?
