Where to watch The Expendable People (2016) in the UK

The Expendable People (2016) is not currently listed on any UK streaming, rental, or purchase service. Last verified on 10 May 2026 by ScreenSearch.

Using rare archival footage and interviews with the legendary anthropologist, Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf, and adivasi activists from the 80s and 90s, some of whom were killed by Indian security forces for their opposition to "commercial forestry projects", the film explores the continuing struggle of the adivasis. It also focused on a moment of hope when the government brought in the Forest Rights Act (2006) to right "historic wrongs" only to betray that promise, so as to protect predatory developers against these expendable peoples.
