Director's Cut
I'm a pro human rights; support indigenous and tribal peoples' traditional rights to forests management and conservation of natural resources in communal indigenous territories.
I am not a professional filmmaker; I use creative audio-visual storytelling ideas to simplify science for better communications.
Unlike indigenous ethnographic filmmaking approach, I do not use voice-over. Instead, I provide a platform for people to voice their feelings, opinions, thoughts and ideas without any influence.
This is done by balancing the art of storytelling with scientific debate without imposing any conclusions on my film audience. Likewise, I sensitively make the protagonists comfortable to share their intimate feelings and experience about a range of issues such as displacements and deforestation.
The filming has been done without any script. Thus giving protagonists freedom to narrate their experience and feelings in their own language and emotions.
Today, many people, including my urban-based friends and colleagues, have not seen forests. Few are aware that the indigenous communities hold traditional rights to land and forest resources.
The business continue as usual in the forest areas that are rich in gas, oils, minerals and other natural resources. The land and forests are often destroyed in the name of 'development'.
The Landing Together films shows 'the way of living' without proposing what is the best road to development.
We consider our audience is best to decide and make its own opinion about development for whom, and how.
The films produce on-the-ground facts, and shows the real experiences of the protagonists - the champions or guardians of land and forests and its resources.
