Why watch the movie Yasuni Man?
"Selected in multiple international festivals and events such as Cinema Planeta 2017 and the International Film Festival in Guadalajara 2018, 'Yasuni Man' is a documentary that makes visible one of the deepest - and often minimized - human crises of our time: the colonization of protected ecosystems or belonging to indigenous people (in many cases, with the blessing of the respective governments) to extract their resources in favor of the interests of large transnational corporations. It is an urgent call for reflection and action based on the case of the Huaorani people in Ecuador, which sadly shares with other indigenous peoples of the world."
