Burning undergrowth has been a part of human farming methods since time immemorial, but above the burning forests of South America, the economic interests of several influential individuals are intertwined with environmental and climate impacts and the suffering of the local population.
The fragile landscape, already afflicted by climate change, is disappearing at a staggering rate. In Bolivia, undergrowth burning is still a legal and insufficiently regulated practice. Czech documentarist Martin Trabalík set out with Bolivian director Geraldine Zambrana Velez to the front lines among the volunteer firemen who are becoming the pleading spokespersons against the global crisis.
