Parks or People?
Shot over five months in Cameroon, central Africa. This is an
uncompromising look at the pitfalls of some rainforest projects
and the successes of others. We follow the clash between a western
conservation group and the tribal people they are evicting from
their homes in national parks, and compare that to an inspiring
grassroots project run mostly by the local people. |
