A film that documents what is like to be on the frontline in the fight against rainforest deforestation and discussion afterwards with LASC member and Brazilian environmental researcher Laura Carvalho Whilst James Newton and Sam Clements were filming in Southern Brazil they heard about the extraordinary work of US missionary Sister Dorothy Stang, a nun with a price on her head. For over 20 years she had been fighting to preserve the Amazon rainforest, while helping peasant farmers live sustainably. Inspired by a mere five-minute call to Sister Dorothy, they set off on a 2500-mile journey to find her. Little did they know of the dangers ahead, or that Sister Dorothy would later be killed by hired gunmen. The Student, the Nun & the Amazon is a film about the work of Sister Dorothy made shortly before her death. Third appointment with the Night Talks on Latin America. |
