Tribes on the Edge
A documentary produced by CauseCentric Productions, directed and produced by Céline Cousteau – explores the timely topics of land threats, health crises, and human rights issues of the Indigenous Peoples of the Vale do Javari in the Brazilian Amazon, expanding the view to how this is relevant to our world. More than a film, it has grown into movement driven by a passionate effort to enact tangible impact for the Javari through education, advocacy, and activism initiatives.
Paris to Pittsburgh
From coastal cities to America’s heartland, Paris to Pittsburgh celebrates how Americans are demanding and developing real solutions in the face of climate change. And as the weather grows more deadly and destructive, they aren’t waiting on Washington to act.
Fundamental Film Series
Fundamental is a character-driven documentary film series presented in five short episodes. Each episode follows compelling women activists who are leading powerful movements for change and gives viewers a window into the many ways rising threats to human rights shape the public and private lives of women around the world.
Pumas in Patagonia
Pumas in Patagonia is meditational film, soothing for the soul and mind. Taking its viewers on an introspective journey of serenity. A deep breath of fresh air in a noisy world. The illusive pumas feature prominently not in the traditional format predator vs prey but in their more common state of relaxation and contemplation, giving viewers the opportunity to connect with this untouched part of the planet through slow motion, time-lapse and aerials. Mountains, animals, pure water, dark skies, sunsets and sunrises are waiting to be enjoyed in this art piece where the protagonist is our loving mother nature.
