Slave Island

Jeremy, an activist for over a decade, faces the invisible power of ideology and faith as he combats traditions of present-day slavery on a remote island.
In koloniale tijden stond Sumba bekend om zijn slavenmarkten, gerund door koninklijke families. Tegenwoordig bestaan deze slaven nog steeds. Ze worden Ata genoemd, ‘dienaren’, en ze zijn eigendom van families uit de hoogste kaste, de Maramba. Activist Jeremy Kewuan is vastbesloten deze tragedie aan het licht te brengen en te beëindigen. Hij komt in contact met Lucky, een man die trots zijn recht verdedigt om slaven te bezitten en daarbij een schokkende mentaliteit aan de dag legt. ‘Slaven zijn mensen,’ zegt hij, ‘maar ze denken als dieren. Als een kat iets verkeerds doet, slaan we hem. Maar we houden nog steeds van hem.’
