Jamie Lang Banijay Rights has teamed with Banijay Iberia label Diagonal TV and Crescendo Media Production on the feature documentary “The Silence of the Earth,” about the assassinations of three environmental activists and the larger impact that climate destruction is having on our world.

Banijay will be sharing the film with prospective buyers at Mipcom later this month. Eulogio Romero directs the film, which takes a close look at the lives and tragic deaths of three fearless environmentalists: Berta Cáceres, Paulo Paulino Guajajara and Aldo Zamora.

Each had their lives cut short while fighting the good fight against unchecked corporate greed and environmental destruction.

Thematically, “The Silence of Earth” plays out as an investigative thriller, although its producers say at its core, it’s “a heart-wrenching drama, shining a light on the dark forces behind their deaths and connecting them to global climate change.” Cáceres was a Honduran activist and Indigenous leader who co-founded the Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras and won the Goldman Environmental Prize in 2015.
