SYNOPSIS: Indigenous environmental leaders embark on an extraordinary trans-continental adventure from the Boreal forest to deep into the heart of the Amazonian jungle to unite the peoples of North and South America and deepen the meaning of “Climate Justice”. The Condor & The Eagle documentary offers a glimpse into a developing spiritual renaissance as the film four protagonists learn from each other’s long legacy of resistance to colonialism and its extractive economy. Their path through the jungle takes them on an unexpectedly challenging and liberating journey, which will forever change their attachment to the Earth and one another.

Join as a Co-Host of this Community Screening
Congregations and organizations are invited to sign up to be co-hosts of this screening program. Co-hosts are expected to invite their constituents/members to watch the film. An appeal for donations (sliding scale suggested $1-100) will be made to those who register and attend the event. There is no requirement to donate in order to attend. This resource is being offered by UUMFE & the film creators without a set screening fee, however, IF your organization has the financial capacity to pay for film screenings & program offerings, co-hosts are also asked to make an organizational donation comparable to what you would pay in licensing for similar programs (suggested $50-$350, sliding scale). If your organization cannot afford to make a contribution, that is okay. Co-hosts are also welcome to organize their own film discussion programs (this discussion guide is available), and UU Ministry for Earth can promote this if a broad audience is desired. All donations will be split 50/50 between the filmmaker’s “No More Sacrificed Communities!” Film Impact Campaign, and the Create Climate Justice – Indigenous Solidarity Fund (managed by UU Ministry for Earth).
