Join us at SLO Film Center from August 9th through August 11th for the theatrical release of the new award-winning documentary, We Are Guardians!
We Are Guardians follows Indigenous forest guardians in their fight to protect the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil from destruction. Directed by Edivan Guajajara, Chelsea Greene, and Rob Grobman—and executive produced by Leonardo DiCaprio—the film uses powerful character-driven storytelling to shine a light on one of the most critical ecological and human rights crises of our time. Watch the trailer here.
Experience the beauty of the Amazon Rainforest on the big screen and hear from the film team in a pre-recorded discussion, including Indigenous leaders from Brazil – co-director Edivan Guajajara and featured guardian and political leader Puyr Tembé.
