This documentary, filmed among the Ashaninka people of Eastern Peru, explores the people's everyday life while contemplating their uncertainties and fears connected with both day-to-day living, and with Peru's current political turmoil. The focus of the film is the intimate relationship the people have with plants, animals, the land, the weather, and the jungle that surrounds them.

Primarily in Ashaninca, with English subtitles, and some English voice-overs.
