PBS has a new digital series called “Untold Earth,” which explores weird and awe-inspiring corners of the planet in and easily digestible format. It’s produced in cooperation with Nature magazine and the great Atlas Obscura website.

The first episode — which you can watch in its entirety above — is a very handsomely shot look at the old-growth forests of Redwoods State and National Parks. Redwood experts guide us through the unusual ecology of old-growth redwood trees, current management practices and the cultural importance of the trees to the Yurok Tribe.

In other words: This might cover old ground for most of you, but again: Beautiful cinematography. It’s worth eight minutes of your time.
