The film is a rich, intimate journey meeting the many people who are living an intricate daily balance in the Amazon basin, one of the world’s most disrupted and threatened regions. Through intimate, character focused storytelling, the film reveals the many intertwined social and economic issues driving this complicated landscape. This is a powerful film that explores the role of violence in the Indigenous defense of Amazonian rainforests under threat from global neoliberal capitalism, while also depicting the economic logics that drive illegal loggers to engage in poaching these vital forests.
