'We're using these images as a cry for help.' An indigenous film collective from Brazil has released new footage of the isolated Awá tribe in the Amazon rainforest
The 1-minute video appears to show a man holding what looks like a machete, who at one point seems to look directly at the camera.Then another figure can be seen briefly, carrying what might be a bow and arrows, before the pair run off through dense vegetation.The footage was filmed in Maranhao state, eastern Brazil, by a neighboring tribe called the Guajajara, who work to protect the rainforest where the Awá live.
"Over the past six months, Bolsonaro and his environment minister have been devoting themselves to the dismantling of the Brazilian environmental governance and neutralizing regulatory bodies", Carlos Rittl, executive secretary of the environment NGO network Observatorio do Clima told CNN."We hope this film produces something positive," said Flay Guajajara of Mídia Índia, who shot the footage.
