Summary A year ago, a young Indigenous Colombian woman named Andrea and her people were driven off their land in the Amazonian jungle and forced to move to the city of Cali, Colombia. She returns to her ancestral home with a box carrying the body of her dead daughter in hopes of burying her on the sacred land of her people, but she has another reason for returning. She has a secret camera that she uses to photograph the illegal mining operation that displaced her people. She encounters a man who she met as a boy years ago, and he helps her get the proof she needs. Includes back matter and additional resources.
