Timed with the re-release of Avatar in theaters today, director James Cameron has teamed up with Amazon Watch to produce a short feature A Message from Pandora. The documentary spotlights the battle to stop the massive Belo Monte Dam Complex on the Xingu River in the Brazilian Amazon, which thousands of local Indigenous people have vowed to resist, citing its potential devastating impact on their communities and the rainforest environment.
