As policies and programs to Reduce Emissions from Deforestation and
Degradation (REDD) and to enhance forest carbon stocks (REDD+) are promoted
around the world by global and national elites, Indigenous Peoples and other
forest-dependent communities are raising the alarm that these programs will have
serious negative impacts — and will not reduce the cascading threats of the
climate crisis. This 28-minute documentary introduces the many concerns about
REDD from the perspective of the people who are most impacted, featuring
interviews and testimonies from Mexico, Brazil, Panama, Philippines, Indonesia,
Nepal, Uganda, India, and California.,
