              Soy Defensor de la Selva relates how the Sarayaku community struggles against CGC when this oil company enters Sarayaku territory in order to carry out seismic prospecting, without the consent of the community. The video shows how the Sarayaku community confronts the oil company crews in order to stop them. The conflict intensifies when the military intervenes, reaching body-to-body confrontations. The women are the main protagonists of the video. Men, women, and children go out to guard the traditional limits of the community. The film shows the life in our Camps for Peace and Life, and contains the testimonies of our elders, as well as traditional music as background. This is the story of a small community struggling to save its space of life.

              A poetic and penetrating look at the old slaughterhouse in Quito, and the work routine. When you go to Quito's slaughterhouse you can see the emotional detachment with which living animals are turned into meat for mass consumption. At the end of the day its a job like any other, a routine. The smell of the place is tepid and penetrating, the noise is loud, the colour red dominates. And in this place, which to the naive observer is terrifying and nauseating, hundreds of people come, including entire families, to earn a living. Couldn't so much effort, so much death, have an ulterior motive?.

              In the aggressive search for the “black gold” that drives Western economies, multinational corporations are working to extract billions of dollars of oil reserves from beneath Ecuador's rainforest. Between Midnight and the Rooster's Crow investigates the operations of the EnCana Corporation, a firm that, despite proud public declarations of its social responsibility, is shown to be answerable for widespread environmental contamination and human rights violations.
