About the Film

"Moosehead's Wicked Good Plan" explores how a large-scale development proposal by the country’s biggest private land owner, Seattle-based Plum Creek Timber, impacts a small, poor community in rural Maine.

The region is the Moosehead Lake Region. It is home to the largest undeveloped forest east of the Mississippi.

Through the eyes of the supporters and critics of Plum Creek’s development, the film documents the struggles of these people to make a living in an area faced with changes to its economy--an economy that has traditionally depended on the vast natural resources of the Maine forests.
