Uprooted: The Olympic Tribe // 2021

Directed by Balint Revesz & Produced by Angus MacInnes

Borneo, most of which is Indonesian territory, is the third largest island in the world and one of the most important rainforest areas on earth. Only 60 years ago, it was almost completely covered by primary forest. This forest is home to many indigenous peoples, and the diversity of species is greater here than anywhere else in the world. But the rainforest on Borneo is also being cleared more and more massively, large timber industry companies are clearing natural forests for palm oil and timber plantations. A habitat that is thousands of years old is threatening to disappear bit by bit.
