Film Description:
The film aims to raise awareness of the lack of information in areas not affected by disasters resulting from the extractivist economy, both nationally and internationally, and to question governmental reporting of frequent oil spills and other disasters. Disinformation is a political mechanism to avoid confronting the responsibility of the private economy in the Amazon. In the end many know that there is a lack of information – can’t you show solidarity if you don’t know?
The film calls for solidarity.
