Borneo’s Vanishing Tribes

A Student Film

In the forests of Borneo, a native community struggles to protect its ancestral homeland from an industry poised to destroy one of the Earth’s oldest and most biodiverse rainforests. Borneo’s Vanishing Tribes offers a glimpse into the lives of those who are most at risk, the Dayak “people of the forest,” who have relied on the forests for thousands of years.
