PERU MILENARIO´s crew was on assignment for former INDEPA(PCM-Perú), shooting a documentary on recently contacted Nahua, Nanti and Kirineri people living near and in the Camisea Natural Gas project Block 88.

The Nahua, Nanti and Kirineri are semi nomadic peoples who live in voluntary isolation in the Kugapakori, Nahua, Nanti State Territorial Reserve, neighbouring the Urubamba river, and had little or no contact with the outside world. The peruvian government created the Reserve in 1990 to "protect these vulnerable people from outside intrusion". Some ONG claim that both the state and the Camisea project are violating internationally recognized indigenous rights. "We have this deep fear for our children and for the heritage that we will be left behind. Because our children will have children and our grandchildren to. But maybe we won´t existe anymore" claims Marianelli Mantaro, from Shivankoreni community.
We were overwhelmed by the astonishing diversity and beauty of the landscape contrasted with the painful poverty of this proud peruvians.
