Two of the last members of the Piripkura still live as nomads in the Amazon rainforest. The live encircled by farms that are expanding through violent means. The area can only keep its protected status with proof that they are still living there. So civil servant Jair Candor goes in search of them.
This one-of-a-kind ethnographic documentary tells an urgent story about those who live at the edge of our modern world. Impressively capturing the Amazonian landscape, Piripkura contemplates the quiet resistance of its two main characters against the devastating effects of deforestation.
