In the middle of the Ecuadorian Amazonia, a luxuriant utopia vibrates. Direct democracy, transparency, equality for all, legal struggles, sometimes physical... These are the daily struggles of the 1400 members of the 7 Sarayaku communities to defend the "living forest" and their culture against the repeated attacks of the oil companies.
