To life, to the earth

As part of the Alimenterre Film Festival

Screening of the documentary "À la vie, à la terre", Cameroun la terre des femmes - All audiences

The lungs of the planet, a reserve of biodiversity and a bulwark against rising sea levels, the mangroves of Cameroon are under threat from uncontrolled logging and climate change. The women who cultivate the fields suffer the effects of extreme weather events on a daily basis. On the mainland, in the south, thousands of hectares of forest are being sacrificed to rubber and palm oil monocultures: an economic choice that seems essential to the country's development, but which generates greenhouse gases and disturbs both flora and fauna.
