After the success of ‘Protecting the Amazon’, the documentary series co-produced for EarthX TV,  Gert-Peter Bruch & HRH Esmeralda of Belgium created a new movie called ‘Amazonia, The Heart of Mother Earth’, in collaboration with Stop Ecocide International and with the support of Greenpeace and The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation. This new exciting project  aims to mobilize at a global level on the absolute necessity to demarcate and protect all indigenous territories in Brazil and call for the recognition of an international law criminalizing ecocide. 

About the movie:
”Our film tells from a human point of view the unfinished story of the recognition and protection of indigenous territories in the Brazilian Amazon, a story whose countdown began more than sixty years ago, with the creation of the National Park of Xingu. This documentary receives the exceptional testimonies of five indigenous leaders from four different generations, including legendary chief Raoni Metuktire of the Kayapo people, with which the directors and producers have very strong personal ties going back several decades.. 

Major Brazilian and international witnesses also contribute to the film with exclusive interviews, including President Lula, explorer Sydney Possuelo (former president of the National Indian Foundation) and Jojo Mehta  (Co-founder and Executive Director, Stop Ecocide International) reminding us that the safeguarding of the Amazon has been a common story for more than 60 years. “
