The Chocolate Farmer

Collaborateurs : Clarke, Annette | Din, Ravida | Fernando, Rohan | Martin, Kent | Office national du film du Canada

« Without the land, we will cease to exist. » In an unspoiled corner of southern Belize, cacao farmer and father Eladio Pop manually works his plantation in the tradition of his Mayan ancestors: as a steward of the land. A tender and moving family tale, director Rohan Fernando’s lush cinematic journey intimately captures a year in the life of the Pop family as they struggle to preserve their values in a world that is suddenly and dramatically changing. A lament for cultures lost, this timely and vital film challenges our deeply held assumptions of progress.
