The film First Flight, produced by the Austrian public television (ORF), received the award Ciudad de Pamplona for the best film presented at the Telenatura Festival of the University of Navarra. Its authors received the award during the closing ceremony of the third edition of the International Television Festival for Nature Conservation and knowledge dissemination .

This year, 82 films from 17 countries, including the U.S., Germany, Austria and Spain, were presented at competition . The screenings took place at the Planetarium of Pamplona and at the School of Communication of the University of Navarra.

Apart from the contest, the Telenatura festival was attended by national and international professionals such as Jeffery Boswall (BBC), Sean Morris (first director of Oxford Scientific Films), Ysmael Álvarez (president of the Spanish Scientific Cinema association ) and José María Montero (El País and Canal Sur). Likewise, Joaquín Gutiérrez Acha, one of the Spanish directors of nature documentaries whose work has had a greater international diffusion, presented his latest work Lince ibérico. The Mediterranean hunter.

For his part, Luis Miguel Domínguez previewed at the Planetarium his documentary Akuntsú. The end of the world, about an Amazonian tribe almost extinct due to the threat of the white man. "The film explains to Brazilians what is happening within their borders so that they put pressure on their government. It also tries to call the attention of the international community so that they know the status extreme danger of these peoples", explained its author.

In this sense, he claimed that the West "should be interested in these issues so that Brazil perceives their relevance and enhances them. A government that aspires to be modern has to assume the existence of indigenous peoples with the same pride as being issue one in music, sports or Formula 1".

Likewise, the producer emphasized the vindictive nature of his film and his intention to "do justice through a decent and committed work . We are talking about peoples and cultures that are being trampled on. The Indians do not want compassion, but rather recognition of their authority in the territory they inhabit".
