Our work
The Sand and the Rain
The Sand and the Rain is an adventure which takes place at the crossroads of two worlds. What happens when three Qataris, accustomed to a life of creature comforts, find themselves in an indigenous community deep in the world’s largest rainforest? And how will three indigenous shamans fare when the tables are turned, and they find themselves in the concrete jungle of Qatar?
The film explores how two such contrasting worlds are in fact bound by invisible links. It shows us why, now more than ever, ancient cultures are humanity’s greatest resource.
Guardians of Liberty
Guardians of Liberty (Los Guardianes de la Libertad) is an audiovisual documentary project in which political leaders, herbalists, medicine men and healers of both sexes from one of the most traditional indigenous communities of the central Amazon region of Colombia speak of their sophisticated system of environmental management, which has been conserved for more than 11,000 years.
History’s B-sides
History’s B-Sides (Lado B de la Historia) explores past events whose effects continue to resonate, in one way or another, in the present. Each chapter seeks to trigger the memories which lie dormant in objects, places, people, plants, songs and grandparents’ stories…
Sacred Encounters
Sacred Encounters is a documentary series follows meetings between Amazonian indigenous peoples and people from other ancient cultures across the world, looking at the exchanges of art and knowledge which emerge.
