Within the scope of the Golden Boll Film Festival, it is aimed to raise awareness with films in which filmmakers draw attention to ecological problems.
The films that will be screened and their topics are as follows:
The Forest Maker – Volker Schlöndorff
View the work of Tony Rinaudo, whose adventure that took him to Niger at the age of 82, prevented an unsustainable poverty with forests, reforested millions of hectares of land by reviving natural vegetation, thereby protecting farmland against wind-blown sand from the Sahara Desert and increasing grain production.
Pleistoscene Park / Ice Age Park – Luke Griswold – Tergis
Established in 1996 in Northern Siberia, within the borders of the Republic of Saka, the Ice Age Park is a kind of utopia. A scientific project where cold-hardy Yakut horses, yaks, musk cattle graze and feed on vegetation, storing food in permafrost tunnels. Father-son scientists Sergey and Nikita Zimov aim to recreate the ice age ecosystem. Ultimately, they are conducting an experiment that challenges global warming.
Delicado / Sensitive Issue – Karl Malakunas
13 of environmental volunteers fighting to protect Palawan, described as the Philippines' "last ecological frontier", were shot dead while trying to seize chainsaws from illegal loggers. The Sensitive Subject both takes the viewer to this paradise on earth and shows how it was turned into hell. Sensitive Mevzu is a striking production that can be called a nature documentary on one side and an action movie on the other.
The Territory – Alex Pritz
The region focuses on the struggle of the indigenous Uru-eu-wau-wau people of Brazil to protect their rainforest from looters and invaders. Director Alex Pritz shot the film with the people of Uru-eu-wau-wau, who were first contacted in 1981 and whose land has been gradually usurped by farmers ever since. The Uru-eu-wau-wau region serves as a defensive line against rainforest plunder. The producers of the film, which took place over a period of three years, are the famous directors Darren Aronofsky and The Cave, and the Oscar-nominated and experienced producer Sigrid Dyekjaer.
All That Breathes - Shaunak Sen
This film is about the efforts of two brothers named Nadeem and Muhammed Saud in New Delhi to save black rookies who have adapted to the urban environment and entered their ecosystem; In January, Sundance was chosen as the best documentary at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
