Angel of the Amazon, a compelling music drama by Evan Mack,  is based on the true story of Sister Dorothy Stang, who devoted her life to protecting the Amazon rainforest and the indigenous peoples who make it their home. In 2005 at age 73, Sister Dorothy was killed by assassins hired by the owner of a logging company, who felt her 
passion for the Earth and all of its gifts to be a threat. Her sacrifice launched a global movement to save the rainforest and to plant trees around the world. Dot, as she was fondly known, met and faced all these challenges in serving the people of Brazil whom she loved so deeply and for whom she sacrificed her life.

The Rainforests are the heart and breath of our planet, evocative of the Tree of Life, symbolizing the eternal connection of air, light, water, and earth in harmony with the people of the world.
Angel of the Amazon explores important themes of environmental protection and Indigenous struggle by unfolding the story of Sister Dorothy (pictured above).

Her mission illuminates the struggles and obstacles that are prevalent around the world today: standing in solidarity with the oppressed, protecting the environment, honoring and preserving Indigenous cultures, whilst balancing the need for jobs with the needs of the environment.

Sister Dorothy bravely faced all these challenges alongside the Indigenous people of Brazil, whom she loved so dearly.
