Penty and his family are members of the Guarani tribe from the community of Bameno in the heart of the Amazon forest. They live in the selva, in a region that has been preserved from modern influence for many centuries Today however, as modern civilization is penetrating the forest to exploit its wealth, Guarani culture is fading. For the past decades, large industrial groups have threatening the flora and fauna. This film paints the intimate portrait of a people struggling to keep their culture alive. They are one the last traditional tribes of South America, with only 87 members left.
