Edivan dos Santos Guajajara

No synopsis available yet.

The Araribóia indigenous land in Maranhão is one of the most endangered in the Amazon. It is the territory of the Guajajara people and also of a group of isolated indigenous people, the Awá Guajá. The film is an alert and a cry for help from the Guajajara for the protection of forests and their Awá Guajá relatives. One of the last hunting and gathering peoples in the world, whose way of life depends essentially on the forest, has its days numbered if the destruction continues.

In this expansive character-driven exposé, Indigenous guardians of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil fight to protect their territories from the ravages of extractive industries, confronting deforestation by illegal loggers, corrupt politicians and profit hungry global corporations.
