However, the film&#8217;s strongest point is its ethnographic approach combined with archival footage and other historical material about indigenous peoples in Indonesia. This film is the result of in-depth research conducted by local ethnographers, activists and indigenous foundations, and as such, is a major contribution to the preservation of the intangible cultural heritage of indigenous peoples whose cultures are on the verge of extinction. Another quality of this film is the extraordinary beauty of the landscape shots combined with the daily activities and ancestral rites of the people.\u201d <\/em>Quoted from the Jury&#8217;s statement, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CqFXgw5saDb\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@niffnepal<\/a> page on Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.11.301.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"2216\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.11.301-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2216\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.11.301-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.11.301-300x225.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.11.301-768x576.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.11.301.jpeg 1310w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.29.46.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"2213\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.29.46.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2213\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.29.46.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.29.46-300x225.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.sukumentawai.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-04-12-at-11.29.46-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\"><em><sub><span><i>Amanda &amp; Tracy filmmaker UK<\/i><\/span> &#8211;  Atefeh &amp; Nafise filmmaker Iran<\/sub><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The feature documentary film \u201cMentawai souls of the Forest\u201d (75 Minutes) was produced in 2019 through collaboration between our Suku Mentawai Foundation (YPBM) and<a href=\"http:\/\/cinemate.org\/#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Joo Peter<\/a>, Producer and Director, from Germany.
