Peat, Palm and Haze explores the environmental and socio-economic impact of peat forest burning in tropical Southeast Asia. The documentary delves into how this large-scale deforestation and agricultural expansion—driven by a government-sponsored transmigration program and the boom of oil palm farming—has led to severe haze pollution, health crises, and displacement of indigenous communities. Featuring perspectives from scientists, government officials, farmers, and displaced minorities, the film examines the complex and often conflicting narratives surrounding this environmental challenge.
