The Flame
2021, Indonesian. Directed by Arfan Sabran.
In the forests of Borneo, Iber Djamal has been fighting large-scale deforestation around his village for decades. But at 77, and despite unwavering devotion, the struggle becomes more and more illusory in the face of the voracity of the agribusiness monsters. An urgent and tragically universal ecological fable.
