Synopsis:

The Kukamas, sons of the spirit of the river, are considered to be the first people to live in the Amazonia. They have a special connection to water. The river recedes and rises throughout the year and it affects the community from Santo Tomás, a small town in Peru. This short film, shot at the end of the wet season, shows us the Kukama’s beliefs and lifestyle, the danger that technology poses to them and the challenges this community must face today.
