The film warns us about the world's water crisis and the international greed for the Amazon Forest, the largest fresh water reservoir on the planet. In addition to concentrating 20% of the world's drinking water, the Amazon is the region with the greatest chance of maintaining its water sources in the next decades, thanks to the humidity of its forest.

A girl from the countryside goes...Iracema 1975
A girl from the countryside goes to the city of Belém to take part in the Círio de Nazaré celebrations. Led to prostitution, she wishes to move to the wealthiest Southeast region of Brazil. In a dance club, she meets a truck driver that transports wood. Dreaming with the big city, she asks for a ride, and the two begin a journey through the Trans-Amazon road. In tension with the Brazilian military authorities of the time, the film registers several aspects of the Amazon social tragedy – forest fires, slave work and child prostitution. Awarded in several international festivals, the film was forbidden by the Brazilian censorship. It was only released years later, winning the Brasília Film Festival in 1981.
