Synopsis

The history of Atlantic Wood is a history that involves a lot of destruction and resistance. Currently less than 8% remains of the original forest. In the area formerly occupied by the forest live almost 70% of the Brazilian population, resulting in great human pressure. Worried about this situation, Superfilmes intends to make possible to produce a documentary approaching the social and ambiental history of the region originally occupied by the Atlantic Wood.
