The highly-anticipated Guardians Of Pachamama documentary will be coming out at the end of this month – and audiences can expect insight into a tangled story of exploitative brutality.

A team of young documentarians, one of whom is Maltese born Mariah Ivie Cutajar, delved into the Amazon to bear witness to the destruction of one of the earth’s lungs – which is also an increasingly ravaged homeland to so many.

When Christian missionaries attempted to convert the Guardians of Pachamama within the Ecuadorian Amazon rainforest, the Waorani tribespeople were understandably displeased.

And when the Christians were followed by an even more controlling, invasive entity – oil companies hell bent on sucking every ounce of profit out of Pachamamao lands – they knew that their way of living would never be the same again.

The full feature-length documentary will be released at the end of this month – 27th July – and will treat viewers to a rare opportunity:

Bear witness to Pachamama cultural heritage, and reckon with the exploitative profiteering fuelling environmental crisis, which is seeking to destroy it.

The documentary will premiere in Malta at the Orpheum Theatre, Gżira – book your tickets and save yourself a seat for this powerful documentary here.
