In the stillness of the wild, a chainsaw hums.
To protect a rhino, its horn is removed, not out of cruelty, but to save it from a deeper violence.

"The Land Remembers" journeys to Thorndale on the edge of Greater Kruger, South Africa, where Abundant Village is reimagining what protection really means. From rhino dehorning and snare removals in the Manyeleti to school food gardens, hempcrete/rammed-earth builds, after-school mentorship, indigenous knowledge, and mental wellness, this film asks a harder question: How do we stop poaching before it begins? And how do we heal people so it never has to start?

This is a story of reconnection: of young leaders rising, rangers and villagers working shoulder to shoulder, and a community choosing dignity, responsibility, and regeneration. It’s about healing people and land at the same time… and what becomes possible when we do.
