CMS Presents “Follow the Rain”
Special Limited Engagement at the Eugene Art House Sunday, April 12, 2026
World famous fungi hunters invite audiences on a unique expedition into the wilderness of Australia, where the symbiotic dance between fungi, plants and animals, unlocks nature’s greatest secrets.
Today there is a mass myco-awakening where we are only just starting to understand how important fungi are to life as we know it and how critical they are in protecting us from the impacts of climate change.
The race is on to document as many species of fungi as possible, as fast as possible.
At the forefront of this push internationally are Stephen Axford, and his partner in life and all things fungi, filmmaker Catherine Marciniak.
In Follow the Rain, Stephen and Catherine follow in the path of the rain to document the fungi that emerge. Their mission – to find out how fungi fit into the world of living things.
It is an exploration of the world of fungi as you have never seen it – combining a decade of research and passion, Stephen and Catherine’s mesmerising fungi time-lapses and footage, and the most incredible fungal stories.
