Available with audio description
At the edge of Borneo’s vast rainforest, Kéria rescues a baby orangutan found in the palm plantation where her father works. At the same time, her young cousin Selaï seeks refuge with her family, fleeing the conflict that opposes his nomadic people to the logging companies. Kéria, Selaï, and Oshi, the baby orangutan, will fight together to protect the endangered native forest – a fight that also takes Kéria on a journey to uncover the truth about her roots.

Call on the food industry!
NO to palm oil in our food!
Palm oil travels thousands of kilometres from the farthest corners of the globe to end up on our plates, negatively impacting the environment, biodiversity, human rights, and our health. Yet, sustainable alternatives exist. It’s time for the food industry to take responsibility! Join foodwatch in urging food manufacturers to substitute palm oil with more responsible and locally produced sustainable alternatives.
