THE TERRITORY provides an immersive on-the-ground look at the tireless fight of the  Indigenous Uru-eu-wau-wau people, and their eighteen year old leader, against the encroaching deforestation brought by  farmers and illegal settlers in the Brazilian Amazon. With awe-inspiring cinematography  showcasing the titular landscape and richly textured sound design, the film takes audiences  deep into the Uru-eu-wau-wau community and provides unprecedented access to the farmers  and settlers illegally burning and clearing the protected Indigenous land.

Partially shot by the Uru-eu-wau-wau people, the film relies on vérité footage captured over  three years as the community risks their lives to set up their own news media team in the  hopes of exposing the truth.

“Save the rainforest has been a constant refrain among environmentalist groups for the past half-century, but no recent film captures the immediacy of the threat better than “The Territory,” Alex Pritz’s documentary feature debut, which had its premiere earlier this year at Sundance.” The New York Times
