Synopsis
A searing account of the struggle between the indigenous people of the Amazon and the Andes and the hungry global industries of gold, wood and oil. There is a war raging in Peru, waged on the land by the global industries that we rely on, plundering the Amazon and the Andes. Joseph Zárate's stunning work of documentary exposes the tragedy, violence and corruption tangled up in the extraction of precious resources, and the indigenous communities fighting for their rights.

Paperback. Etat : New. When you fill up your car, install your furniture or choose a wedding ring, do you ever consider the human cost of your consumables?There is a war raging in the heartlands of Peru, waged on the land by the global industries plundering the Amazon and the Andes. In Saweto, charismatic activist Edwin Chota returns to his ashaninka roots, only to find that his people can't hunt for food because the animals have fled the rainforest to escape the chainsaw cacophony of illegal logging. Farmer Maxima Acuña is trying to grow potatoes and catch fish on the land she bought from her uncle - but she's sitting on top of a gold mine, and the miners will do anything to prove she's occupying her home illegally. The awajun community of the northern Amazon drink water contaminated with oil; child labourer Osman Cuñachí's becomes internationally famous when a photo of him drenched in petrol as part of the clean-up efforts makes it way around the world.Joseph Zárate's stunning work of documentary takes three of Peru's most precious resources - gold, wood and oil - and exposes the tragedy, violence and corruption tangled up in their extraction. But he also draws us in to the rich, surprising world of Peru's indigenous communities, of local heroes and singular activists, of ancient customs and passionate young environmentalists. Wars of the Interior is a deep insight into the cultures alive in the vanishing Amazon, and a forceful, shocking exposé of the industries destroying this land. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781783786152
