The Bellingham Unitarian Fellowship and the Bellingham Human Rights Film Festival invite you to a viewing of "When Two Worlds Collide."
In
this tense and immersive tour de force, audiences are taken directly into the
line of fire between powerful, opposing Peruvian leaders who will stop at
nothing to keep their respective goals intact. On the one side is President
Alan Garcia, who, eager to enter the world stage, begins aggressively
extracting oil, minerals, and gas from untouched indigenous Amazonian land. He
is quickly met with fierce opposition from indigenous leader Alberto Pizango,
whose impassioned speeches against Garcia’s destructive actions prove a
powerful rallying cry to throngs of his supporters. When Garcia continues to
ignore their pleas, a tense war of words erupts into deadly violence.
