A documentary that impacts by showing a violated landscape in Brazil: one, the banks of the Xingú River, due to the construction of the Belo Holizonte dam, and second, the town of Altamira, where approximately 40,000 persons were relocated after being displaced by the huge work, one of the largest plants on the planet. Both dramas were researched and edited into a single dramatic coverage, an impressive work. In the end, we realize that we have witnessed the portraits of four women who are heads of families, and vivid examples of resilience in the face of adversity, with beautiful images that even open space for poetry... and a bit of Jorodowskian horror too.
