Jury Special Mention at Watch Docs
Fantastic news! "This is our Everything" was awarded with a Jury Special Mention at Watch Docs Film Festival. Here the Jury's verdict:
"We are awarding a special mention to a film about an indigenous community's relationship to the world around them, about the power of that community, and the resolve with which they are trying to defend their environment. For them, the forest is a buffer zone and a barrier; without it, they would not be able to survive. The director has managed to capture the protective feelings of one community for another: even though the two groups do not know much about each other, they are still part of the same complex ecosystem."
