In Sarawak, “the ones from upstream” are the first affected by deforestation. The Penan, once a nomadic people, are caught in the eye of that storm: how to go on living when the landscape which brought meaning to existence disappears? The film led by the songs of those who refuse to give in, tells of the intimate interweaving of a sweet and secret way of life with the fight which rages in the shadows of the big trees.

Nel Sarawak (Borneo), «quelli a monte dei fiumi» sono i primi colpiti dalla distruzione delle foreste. I nomadi Penan sono nel cuore del ciclone: come continuare a vivere quando il paesaggio che dà un senso all’esistenza sparisce? Il film attraversato dal canto di coloro che si rifiutano comunque di arrendersi racconta il profondo intreccio della vita dolce con la lotta che infuria all’ombra dei grandi alberi.
