Details

XR North Lakes, Sustainable Keswick and Friends of the Earth West Cumbria present a special screening of THE TERRITORY.

7.45pm film start.

There will be a panel-led discussion at the end of the film

The distributor has provided the film to XR for free: we are asking for a £4 donation to cover cinema venue hire costs, with any proceeds going to Extinction Rebellion's work. Book online (50p booking charge) or just show up on the night.

The Territory provides an immersive look at the tireless fight of the Indigenous Uru-eu-wau-wau people against the encroaching deforestation brought by farmers and illegal settlers in the Brazilian Amazon. With awe-inspiring cinematography showcasing the titular landscape and richly textured sound design, the film takes audiences deep into the Uru-eu-wau-wau community and provides unprecedented access to the farmers and settlers illegally burning and clearing the protected Indigenous land.

Partially shot by the Uru-eu-wau-wau people, the film relies on vérité footage captured over three years as the community risks their lives to set up their own news media team in the hopes of exposing the truth."
