YANUNI is a cinematic portrait of Juma Xipaia, an Indigenous chief from the Brazilian Amazon

who rises from a remote village to the frontlines of climate justice. After surviving six

assassination attempts, she is appointed Brazil’s first Secretary of Indigenous Rights—while her

husband, a federal IBAMA agent, leads dangerous operations against illegal gold miners. As

Juma navigates political power, growing threats, and impending motherhood, she is forced to

confront the personal cost of resistance. At once intimate and epic, YANUNI is a powerful story of

Indigenous sovereignty, love, and the urgent fight to protect the planet we call home.
