The forest is the metaphorical landscape of the many places in the world where the situation have reached a point of no return, due to a ruinous economic logic. Viewed from afar looks like an island, but more like hell because of the fires that burn undisturbed trees and vegetation that will never grow back and that we have lost forever. Here the human beings reveals their violent and predatory nature without worrying about what going to be lost, unsettling both a natural and anthropic system without remedy. But also, here Nature and Man find refuge and manifest themselves in their capacity for adaptation and continuous rebirth.

The film consists of 4 chapters within which the absolute protagonist is the environment considered as a unique system in its complexity and interaction with man, crossed and observed following the relationships and economic interests within it. We will start from the suburbs of a large city like Manaus where part of the indigenous population lives and works, to reach the seasonal camps of illegal miners in the forest,  the great thoroughfares where goods transit from here to the rest of the country or abroad for be worked, and the most isolated part of the Yanomami territory who claim the redefinition of indigenous lands and the expulsion of garimpeiros (gold diggers) and landowners.
