Amazonia 2.0
Sandro Bozzolo, Cecilia Maria Reyes, Alessandro Ingaria | 2012 | Ecuador/Italy | 45′
There exists a place in the Ecuadorian Amazonian jungle, where the parameters for development and progress are overturned from the determination of reason, and the collective strength of a forgotten people can transform an old utopia into a tangible reality. The creativity against arms, the respect for mother earth against the rape of petroleum, the communal solidarity against occidental individualism, the wisdom and spirituality oppose the prevailing religion of the god money. The internet as an instrument of union, and the only great network, that for the first time can overturn the hierarchy. In Sarayaku the Amazon has seized to be a passive place that suffers without the receiving reaction from the arrogance of others. A particularly visionary indigenous community has undertaken a path of creative and concrete proposals, a real and owned revolution of consciousness that wants to unite the people in resistance to the world.
