As sentinels dozens of snow-white herons guard the mouth of the Rio Papaturro, the gateway to the Reserve of Los Guatuzos. Once a land of uncontacted indigenous tribes, today this complex of rivers, marshes and tropical rain forests is a border land with an uncertain future. Here, in this remote and beautiful land, live just few hundreds of people, a community consisting mainly of young families. Marginalized in the suburbs of the big cities, families of farmers settle in these forgotten place, looking for an alternative to life and for land to cultivate, a slow exodus of settlers driven by hunger and by the hope of a better future.
