Tawai is a word the nomadic hunter gatherers of Borneo used to describe the connection they feel to their forest home. In this dreamy, philosophical and sociological look at life, Bruce Parry (of the BBC’s Tribe, Amazon & Arctic) embarks on an immersive odyssey to explore the different ways that humans relate to nature and how this influences the way we create our societies. From the forests of the Amazon and Borneo to the River Ganges and Isle of Skye, Tawai is a quest for reconnection, providing a powerful voice from the heart of the forest itself.
Bruce Parry is a documentary filmmaker, indigenous rights advocate, author, explorer, and former Royal Marines commando officer. He is best known for his time spent living with Indigenous Peoples, and for bringing awareness of the shamanic use of psychedelic plant medicine to the mainstream, as well as his investigations into globalisation and climate change.
Come join us and Bruce Parry at the cosy Walden Arts in Cardigan for an inspiring and thought provoking evening.
