Save the People and Forests of Papua

Gaharu: Selamatkan Manusia dan Hutan Papua (Save the People and Forests of Papua)

The documentary explains the multidimensional impacts of the gaharu trade on the environment and indigenous Auwyu dan Wiyaghar, in Assue District, Mappi, in the South of Papua Province. The film then explores the new hopes that emerged with the deployment of a government fact finding team to resolve the issues, which produced some solutions, suggestions, and reduced disagreement.
