SEMBRANDO CINE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
XII EDITION: Recognizing our shadow

Our shade can be a real problem.

It is that side of our humanity, which we prefer to keep hidden, and which makes us act questionably.

This shadow, is in part, what has led us to cause a terrible impact on the environment.

Deforestation, oil spills, pollution of soils and seas, annihilation of species, violation of indigenous rights and assassinations of environmental defenders.

This shadow, individual and collective, is projected from the big cities over our ecosystems and under the protection of state legality and private investments in favor of “progress and industrialization”.

In times where the imbalance we have caused in the environment, comes back at us like climate disasters and nature embezzles, it behooves us to dare to look back at this shadow.

We have a responsibility to understand its impact, point out those projecting it and demand regulations to defend those it affects.

They say that the first step to solving a problem is to identify it and today, through cinema, we seek to acknowledge our actions, to stop the advance of their consequences on our unique natural environment.
