For more than 15 years, cameraman and ecologist John D. Liu has been working on his worldwide mission to green deserts and to restore biodiversity.

It all started in 1995 when Liu filmed the Loess Plateau in China. He witnessed a local population turning an area almost the same size as The Netherlands from a dry, exhausted wasteland into one green oasis. This experience changed his life. From then on, Liu has been traveling worldwide to convince and inspire government leaders, policy-makers, and farmers with his film material and knowledge. Liu diligently spreads the message that restoration of ecosystems is not only possible but also economically very meaningful.
Backlight accompanies Liu on his mission in Jordan and shows on the basis of Liu’s own film material that a green future is possible worldwide.
