EARTH SPIRIT (83 minutes)
Neptune Award, Moondance International Film Festival
Synopsis of the docudrama EARTH SPIRIT:
A troubled city teenager of mixed ancestry is drawn back home to help defend the land, and an elder risks his life to stop the mining because of ancient prophecy that harming the earth will bring doom to humanity. But many indigenous people want the material benefits of modern industry. Tribe and family are split apart as traditionals blockade the main highway to protest mining and drilling.
All around the world, indigenous peoples are protesting the drilling and mining that has invaded their lands. Like Al Gore, many are concerned about the effect of global warming on their health and well-being, but few think about the health or well-being of those suffering right now at the sources of our energy and metals.
However, with the coming of global warming, we will all go down together.
