SIONA: AMAZON’S PROTECTORS UNDER THREAT

Director & Producer: Tom Laffay,

 Emily Wright

Adiela Jinet Mera Paz, a leader of the Siona people, has taken up the effort to remove mines from the tribe’s ancestral land, following decades of armed conflict that has left them facing extinction.

12-year-old Tatheer embarks on a week-long Police boot camp for girls from a social housing estate in Copenhagen. Far from home, deep in the woods, she navigates grueling rituals, elusive social dynamics, and personal setbacks to find her place in this tender and revealing coming-of-age story.
