IN THE LAND OF PALM OIL is a feature documentary that focuses on the casualties, both human and environmental, of palm oil exploitation in Indonesia. The film fuses firsthand accounts of villagers -- victims of land-grabbing by large global corporations who pay off local and national officials -- and vérité observations of young Dayak activists who are trying to expose the brutal human rights violations. The narrative thread of the film centers on Emmanuela Shinta, a rising Dayak activist who sees video and social media exposure as the key to holding her government to account. Acting as an eyewitness to both the civil rights abuses and the environmental degradation, Shinta and her team visit Dayak villagers to record their experiences and ride along with firefighting teams during the dry seasons to expose the tragic consequences of the modern-day palm oil empire in her home province of Central Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo).
