Synopsis

A series that crosses the largest road in Brazil, analyzing chapter by chapter the great problems of the Amazonian occupation and its current consequences: deforestation and forest devastation, agrarian conflicts and the struggle for land, genocide of indigenous populations, contradictions of the non-sustainable development model that does not respect biodiversity and the wisdom of local populations. The highway, which would be one of the ways to take Brazil to the future, left a morbid legacy of unresolved issues with dimensions as gigantic as their extent. The construction of the Transamazon highway was a gigantic saga, the greatest example of the pharaonic works of the Brazilian military government. But the road that would promote national integration was best known for linking the famine of the Northeast with the misery of the Amazon, and was abandoned halfway without being completed. The haunting tone of jornalistic films of the day describes this epic in surrealistic colors. It tells the story of this road, mile to mile, meeting the people who lived this experience and confronting them with this unusual archive material.
