While there is still jungle left

Synopsis

Amado cut down twenty-five trees a day during the seven years he was a feller. Yadira grew up believing that as a woman, her possibilities were restricted to the home, but her desire was to be independent. They both live in the province of Esmeraldas, near the Canandé River in the Ecuadorian Chocó lowlands. Despite living in a reality where sources of work are mainly extractive, both have found ways to conserve the jungle in which they live.
