THE GUARDIANS OF PACHAMAMA
In 2022 I went to Ecuador to meet up with the founder of Heartspace, who was studying the indigenous tribes there and the effect oil companies were having on their way of life.
Over the course of two months our team of five built up relations between us and members of the Woarani tribe and dug deep into the long-term effects of the pollution and destruction omf their land.
During this two months we also worked to raise the money necessary to travel deep into the heart of the Ecuadorian Amazon and self-funded the entire documentary.
My role in this documentary involved the technical and creative aspect of the production; directing, shooting, writing and editing.
