Synopsis:
“Our Land, Our Future†is a documentary by Ed Schehl and Katherine Knight about indigenous land rights and environmental issues in Nicaragua. By showing seldom-seen images of the Caribbean Coast of Nicaragua and its indigenous peoples, it helped to pave the way for the Rama Nation to receive a land title to approximately 1 million acres of their traditional lands. The film won an award at the Costa Rica International Environmental Film Festival. Proceeds helped to fund the first successful lawsuit in Central America making indigenous land rights a human right. Proceeds are helping to fund the first Human Rights lawsuit in the history of Nicaragua. This program was televised on the Free Speech TV Network. For more info contact www.threeamericas.org
