A Última Floresta

There are several indigenous peoples in Brazil, each with its own peculiarities and characteristics. This documentary shows as the Yanomami see the issue of ore and "garimpeiros".

Deforestation starts with the gold prospector (garimpeiro), flowed to the wood seller and finally the big farmer, all on the same idea but at different scales of exploration of the Amazon.

Genocide against indigenous peoples has to stop!

Fantastic, perfect! Yanomami indigenous people tell their own tale about the arrival of gold diggers invading their territory.

A much needed documentary. The photography is insane, Pedro did a wonderful job. And I was amazed at the folklore tales, narrated and played by the natives themselves. I can't see anything that faults it, it's raw, it's pleasant, it's humanity at it's best and at it's worst.

Sadly documentaries on tribes (that are still around) don't seem to get much attention anymore. Most people see the photo and think "Eh, tribal people. Sounds boring!" But you would be wrong.

You are missing out. There is no narrator. No non-tribe people (well aside from the people filming). Just the tribe showing us how they live. And more importantly how modern man is killing them off but figuratively and literally at times.

Their lifestlye is well... tribal. But its almost peaceful and calm compared to how most people live today. It's ashame gold diggers and others get onto their land and put them at risk. Some from causing mercury to poisoning their waters from gold digging. Others literally trying to hurt them because they just want their land.

To note for those who all worried about "Is this some bashing you over the head thing about nature?" Well it is an issue of course, but this documentary is about more then that. It's about the tribes. Deforestation is another issue that affects them greatly.

I'm glad I checked this out. There's nothing really offensive in this for you to worry about. Unless your against nudity. But this isn't nudity as we see it today. This is just a tribe being a tribe. Remember, we modern people are the ones who see butts, breasts, genital's as sexual things that need to be covered up.

Seeing there are only five reviews for this makes me sad. I hope it get more exposure.

No narration, just Yanomami indigenous people vibing in the forest telling us how they lived peacefully before the gold prospectors came along and put their entire existence at risk.

Powerful, devastating, beautifully shot, important, and yet another sad reminder that capitalism & colonialism destroys everything.
