Synopsis
Jairo Fuentes is the young leader of the community in Tamaquito, a village in the forests of northern Colombia. But the Wayúu community’s way of life is being destroyed by the El Cerrejón coal mine. This vast chasm extends for 700 square kilometers, making it the world’s largest opencast coal mine. Every day, the pit gets deeper, gnawing away at the previously unspoiled landscape. Determined to save his community from forced displacement, Jairo Fuentes sets out to negotiate with the mine’s operators.
