worth watching


This clip from the documentary,“Extraction: The Plundering of the Amarakaeri
Reserve” <http://www.extractionfilm.tumblr.com/>, co-directed and produced
by Ross Thomas and Jamie Roberts, provides first hand accounts from the
indigenous Harakmbut tribe, who live in the shadow of seismic oil
exploration on their land deep in the heart of the Peruvian Rainforest. With
their livelihoods and very existence in jeopardy, the Harakmbut are fighting
back against their own Government and Texas based Hunt Oil to put an end to
what they see as the decimation to the natural habitat they’ve hunted and
fished upon for thousands of years. Extraction documents the sobering fact
that U.S. companies are still in the business of pursuing the most
vulnerable people and eco-bio diverse regions on our planet, all in the name
of monetary profit.

Ross Thomas is an actor/filmmaker/activist living in Los Angeles,
California. Ross’ deep respect for tribal communities and their sacred
customs has led him on a personal crusade to help spread awareness and
preserve indigenous peoples and their natural habitats.
