This documentary film follows the lives of two communities in the Amazon state of Maranhão, Brazil, who are resisting eco-violence and attempting to retain their traditional, and more sustainable, life systems.
The Quilombola community - descendants of escaped slaves - in Boa Hora/Manorama have been living off the land for generations. The Ka’apor Indigenous community have been resisting settler violence since the beginning of colonisation. They face ongoing eco-violence in the form of assassinations of their leaders and land-grabbing by local farmers.
There will be a Q&A after the screening with filmmakers Cahal McLaughlin and Siobhán Wills.
