The Territory (2D)

The Territory is a feature documentary following the Uru-eu-wau-wau Indigenous Surveillance Team as they defend their land against a network of Brazilian farmers intent on colonizing their protected territory. The film draws on intimate access to both the Indigenous community and the opposing farmers network, to track the enormous changes and violence in the Amazon over the past three years. The fight for survival forces Bitate and Neidinha - a young Indigenous leader and his female mentor – to find new ways to protect the rainforest from the encroaching invaders.
