Ka’a zar ukyze wà – Forest Owners in danger

The short documentary “Ka’a Zar Ukize Wá — The Owners of the Forest in Danger” (Os Donos da Floresta em Perigo in portuguese) is a cry for help from the grave situation of the isolated indigenous people of the Awá Guajá ethnic group who share the Araribóia Indigenous Land with their Guajajara relatives.
