The Story of Bukit Lawang: Voices of Change from the Forests of Indonesia| 5mins
Director: Paul Redman | Producer: Tim Lewis
Focus Years: 2007 | Country: United Kingdom
Synopsis:
These films explore how forest-dependent communities in Indonesia are finding their own solutions to the continuing unabated loss of their tropical rainforest. Travelling across Indonesia’s vast archipelago at the beginning of 2007 filming extensively throughout Java, Borneo, Sulawesi, Sumatra and West Papua, we gained unique access to ordinary forest dwelling people and examined close-up their personal battle at the front-line of deforestation. For many the issues surrounding climate change, deforestation and illegal logging can seem inordinately complex; the human side - the personal stories - can often be forgotten. But occasionally these global problems can affect one tiny area; and suddenly, in a microcosm, all the devastation and horror take on a very real human face. The communities and villages featured in this serialization have all found themselves thrust into such a position.
