Bandeirão, his son Mato and his brother Kowire are the three Ashenika Indians from Rio Amônea, whose daily life is described in this documentary. During the week, the tranquility of their fields and forest contrasts with the noise of the soccer games and the weekend parties, when everyone gets together at the main village.
