Films for Indigenous Peoples by LifeMosaic

Working in close partnership with Indigenous movements, LifeMosaic focuses on producing and disseminating educational films for Indigenous Peoples and rural communities. In partnership with Tebtebba and AMAN, they recently produced Fever, a 4-part climate change educational film based on the voices of Indigenous Peoples in the Philippines, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Indonesia. Dubbed into 6 languages (English, Indonesian, French, Spanish, Filipino and Cebuano), Fever is designed to inform and empower Indigenous communities across the tropics and to be a tool for grassroots facilitators, helping strengthen local movements in their awareness raising and advocacy work on climate change and Indigenous Peoples' rights.
 
Quotes from users of the films
"We have used Fever a lot. The symbolic imagery is very helpful for us to help communities understand the concepts that we find hard to explain. The video opens the discussion forums. What can we do, what is our strategy, how must we change before we are adversely affected." --Pasang Sherpa, Federation of Indigenous Nationalities, Nepal.
 
“Now I know about the climate and Indigenous Peoples’ rights, so the companies and the government better not come and lie to the people in my village anymore. I will watch Fever with my community and when people know the content, we can declare whether we accept or refuse a company that wants to come into our territory.”--Niko Ainusi, West Papua.
 
The films are primarily for use by Indigenous and tribal communities and grassroots partners and are used as tools for community empowerment. You can watch the films online at www.lifemosaic.net or watch a short trailer at https://vimeo.com/36781761.
 
The films are free of charge to Indigenous communities and their support organisations. For more information, please contact gemma@lifemosaic.net.
