Ecocide in Indonesia
Ecocide in Indonesia is one of the most talked-about movies released in 2017, attracting audiences with its cinematic storytelling and memorable performances.
In 2015, fires in the Indonesian territories of Kalimantan and Sumatra consumed over twenty-one thousand square kilometres of forest and peat lands. A cloud formed that contained more carbon, methane, ammonium and cyanide than the entire annual emissions of the German, British or Japanese industry. Human rights lawyer Baltasar Garzón, through his organisation, Fundación Internacional Baltasar Garzón (FIBGAR), commissioned Forensic Architecture to gather evidence regarding the causes and consequences of the fires, toward the aim of an international trial. -FA
