From
Honey to Ashes
(2008, 47 min.) US/PARAGUAY
Director: Lucas Bessire
In Ayoreo and Spanish with English subtitles.
Threatened by ranchers moving in with bulldozers, an isolated
group of indigenous people flees the forest. This video chronicles
their journey to a new kind of life with more settled relatives,
adjusting to a new identity as Ayoreo Indians and
learning to survive in a world shaped by deforestation, NGO activity,
anthropologists and evangelical Christianity.
