Running Time
91 mins

A companion piece to 1990’s The Heart of the World, this documentary from 2012 was made by Alan Eriera in collaboration with the secretive and isolated Kobi tribe of northern Colombia after they realised that their warnings about environmental destruction had not been heeded.

The Aluna website explains: “The Kogi say that without thought, nothing could exist. This is a problem, because we are not just plundering the world, we are dumbing it down, destroying both the physical structure and the thought underpinning existence.” Wise words indeed. Alan will be present to introduce the screening.
