speak with such insolence.

You can leave now.

I'm sorry. I didn't...

Go.

I said I'm sorry.

Justine!

Alejandro takes his social

work very seriously.

You think?

Sorry. I'll try

and talk to him.

Don't bother!

Anyway, thanks for coming!

I mean it.

Hey.

Look, I'm really sorry

about the other night.

I didn't mean

to be so flip.

Yes, you did.

Save it.

We need people who are serious

about making an impact.

Not making jokes.

I am serious.

You're a serious student,

which is fine,

but it's really

not enough.

Well, maybe if you gave

someone a chance to learn,

your organization

might be more effective.

What's the cause you

care about the most?

I mean, they're

all important,

but what keeps

you up at night?

Women's rights in Africa.

But how can a white

girl from the suburbs

go to Africa and tell

a village that FGM is wrong?

Exactly.

I'll tell you how.

You organize a group

and you go there.

And you get

media attention.

Right or wrong,

you need cameras on them.

That's the only way

people change their behavior.

The threat of embarrassment.

You must shame them.

Show me how.

I think you're an

idealist, Justine,

and you have

good intentions.

But you're not

ready for this.

I am. Let me prove it.

The villages

are here, here and here.

The development is going here.

A few miles from the Yajes.

Ten more miles and the

Yajes village is ruined.

And that's the end of

unmanned civilization.

Justine. Nice of you

to join us.

Late.

Sorry, I got off

at the wrong stop.

It's okay.

We leave Saturday.

We get in one day ahead.

So when the bulldozers arrive,

they're in for a surprise.

Who is behind

the development?

It's a private

corporation in Peru.

They hire ex-military to protect

them and to kill the natives.

So we're going to take on a

private militia with our phones?

No. But we're going

to scare them.

And the Peruvian

Government will notice.

Hi. Sorry. How are we supposed

to stream from the jungle?

They

have a satellite.

Our contact will

hack us in.

I have 15 sites

ready to stream

and an army of followers

to tweet when we're uploaded.

Once the construction knows

they're on camera,

everything changes.

Just watch.

Justine.

Are you sure you're here

for the right reasons?

Yeah.

Good.

Be careful. The jungle's

a dangerous place.

This is crazy.

Are you going tree hugging

or bulldozer hugging?

We're staging a rally.

They're going to shoot you

and bury the bodies.

Well, then you can

watch my execution,

because we're going to be

streaming the whole thing.

I'm so watching that.

This sounds insane.

You know there's always a

non-violent way to make your point.

It is non-violent.
