Forest, Where the Earth Breathes, Ep. 10 - Forest Is Fight

View on the Pragda STREAM site

18 years after the murder of Dorothy Stang, the fight for existence continues close to the land in a territory that remains in dispute and conflict.

The series Forest Where the Earth Breathes aims to showcase the forest and highlight the importance of keeping the approximately 600 billion trees breathing or producing water for the planet.

Weaving together the narrative, the perception of traditional forest peoples in relation to climate change, and the forest as the cradle of water, food, and healing, based on records, whether in testimonies or images, of the daily lives of those who live in the forest and, from the forest, earn their living and that of their families.

Our forests are not only home to animals and plants. A source of water, they are also the home of thousands of people integrated into the forest cycles and interconnected to them.
