RECKONING
Feature Documentary - Directed by Mauricio Monteiro Filho / Produced by Charlie Rosser
Charlie Rosser is currently producing RECKONING, a feature documentary that investigates the systemic corruption and criminal networks driving the Yanomami crisis in the Brazilian Amazon. Told through the intersecting perspectives of a relentless federal prosecutor and a young Yanomami leader, the film traces an extraordinary pursuit of justice across two worlds - one in the corridors of power, the other deep within the forest.
As they uncover the forces behind illegal gold mining and the collapse of state protection, RECKONING exposes the machinery of exploitation threatening both Indigenous survival and the planet’s largest rainforest. What begins as an investigation becomes a moral and political confrontation - a struggle for accountability, sovereignty, and the right to an ancestral world still under siege.
Producer: Charlie Rosser
Co-Producers: Insight Film (UK) & Babel Docs (France)
