Yasuni National Park is a massive swath of (mostly) still pristine rainforest in Ecuador. It’s said to be one of the, if not THE most bio-diverse section of rainforest on the planet. Mainly because it checks all three boxes of being right on the equator, edge of the Andies Mountains, and is in the Amazon basin.

The documentary film “Yasuni Man” is said to show a desperate struggle between conservationists and oil, as the indigenous peoples living in the heart of the Ecuadorian Amazon struggle to preserve their way of life against encroaching resource extracting Capitalist modernity. Filmmaker + biologist Ryan Patrick Killackey documents both the staggering biodiversity of the Yasuni region at risk of destruction alongside the Waorani people who call it home.
