Documentary about the rural population who earn their living as coal miners,
thus helping to keep metallurgic activity going and contributing to the forest devastation in South America.

This heartbreaking documentary by ward-winning producer Nigel Noble deserves to be widely seen and discussed. A winner of numerous awards, it examines the destruction of the Amazonian rainforest and the exploitation of the impoverished migrant workers who turn wood into charcoal for use in the Brazilian pig iron industry.

Beautiful photography and important film! Something to make sure your children watch as well.
