Farmers fighting the global crisis
Our farmer’s docuseries followed the stories of three farmers over a six-month period and their story of resilience at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Meet Ponisih in Indonesia, Caroline in Kenya and Roberto in Peru. Through this unscripted documentary series, get an inside look at the challenges, fears and hopes of three farmers that refused to give up, and stood up for a fair future.
These stories were captured by a team of local filmmakers in each location. Each with a unique style, true to who they are and what they see, they have been instrumental in arriving at moving, authentic portraits.
Below you will find the docuseries for each farmer, Ponisih (Indonesia), Caroline (Kenya) and Roberto (Peru), each broken up into three seperate episodes.
This documentary and the activities were partly funded by German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
