The Indonesian rain forest is a beautiful place. As the third largest rain forest in the world, it is home to more than 12 percent of animal and plant species, including the remarkable “people of the forest” – the orangutans. See these incredibly human creatures in action and meet the people trying to save them from extinction in the wild!

The Hutan Project, a social venture of Tech Networks of Boston, will be screening two films on the orangutan at 7 PM on August 26th: “Orang Rimba” and “Green”.

“Orang Rimba” tells the story of Indigenous peoples impacted by deforestation.

“Green” tells the emotional story of a female orangutan in Indonesia and how the everyday products we buy here at home are affecting beautiful creatures like her.

Come spend an evening getting to know these beautiful creatures and meeting others who share a passion for healing our planet. After the movie you will have a chance to win fair trade Indonesian products that protect the rain forest, and learn about innovative organizations that are buying land, rescuing orangutans, and even creating new rain forests from scarred and burned land.
