Sinopsis

Dry season in the Bolivian Amazon.
Four Ayoreo families live in a makeshift camp on the outskirts of a town. They fled from wildfires that destroyed their territory. Seven decades ago, they fled the forest, which was their home and provided their livelihood. 

Their relationship with the town’s neighbours is tense.

Some nights, they gather around a campfire and remember the forest.
