The Forum for 'friends of Peoples close to Nature' is a movement of groups and individuals, concerned with the survival of Tribal peoples and their culture, in particular hunter-gatherers. These were the first and are the last societies on earth to have a non-exploitative relationship with the natural word. Our task is to help them preserve their unique cultures from enforced assimilation, alien religions, the ideologies of 'progress' and 'growth' and absorption into the global economy.

This film shows the extremely brutal history the native population of West Papua have endured for many decades under the oppressive Indonesian Military.
And shows how to this day, the West Papuans continue their struggle for independence from Indonesia, including historical footage of events showing the UN "shame" vote - Act of 'NO' Choice which lead to their colonisation and the continuing plunder, of the West Papuan's natural resources.
Filmed undercover in West Papua in 1999 - 2001 and combined with historical footage obtained from various sources.

We are coming to Sydney June 9th - 15th for the Australia premier of Strange Birds in Paradise and I'd love to invite all to the premier (June 10th 6pm) and perhaps have a chat after. We are an independent film company and have completely self funded this doco,
So we now need as much help as possible to get the film out there.
Can you pass the rest of this email around through your networks so that we get a sell-out audience for our competition screening on the 10th June.
Let me know if there is anyone you think we should invite.
thank you for your help
