Monteverde Now - The Settlers
Loading...
Uploaded by monteverdenow on Apr 7, 2011
In 1951 Wolf and Lucky Guindon left Alabama for Costa Rica, seeking refuge from the Korean war draft and what they felt was the increasing militarism of the U.S. Within a couple of years, more than 30,000 Americans and at least 1.5 million Koreans would lose their lives. As Quakers, Wolf and Lucky objected to war on religious and moral grounds. Costa Rica which had just abolished its army, was a good fit for those seeking a peaceful, simpler life. That was Monteverde then. Let them tell you about Monteverde now.
"The Settlers" is a part of "Monteverde Now," a collection of 11 short films on people who live and work in Costa Rica's Monteverde Cloud Forest.
