Good Brazilian-Colombian-French film in the border between fiction and documentary portraying harsh problems in the border between Colombia, Brazil and Peru. With several people from that island-village portraying characters wich were similar to themselves, the film has a strong realism close to documentary. Elements of fantastic realism, however, eventually appear while we follow the very earthy fight of a mother to raise alone her child in poverty, to be aknowledged and protected as a refugge, to get a job despite the absolute lack of opportunities, to bear her own losses in the stupid civil war in Colombia. Besides her, the entire community suffers the abuse of powerful businessmen and armed militias who want to oust them of their homes in that island inside the Amazon. Beautifully filmed, strong issues, and intriguing script.
