    How do you connect with nature? What does nature mean to you? Lost for Words takes its audience on a journey around the UK, portraying landscapes and the communities that live within them. Our starting point is the disappearance of nature words from the Oxford Junior dictionary in 2007. Inspired by Robert MacFarlane and Jackie Morris’s best-selling book The Lost Words, it is lost words like acorn, otter, bluebell, dandelion that guide us through the film. We follow them through the seasons, to the most remote parts of the UK landscape, museum archives and into scientists’ labs.
