A brave and bold indigenous girl, protector of her jungle and its wild life and guided by her shaman grandfather, pairs with a boy from the big city, against animal traffickers in the Amazon forest.

After Rhoda’s husband passed away, she was thrown off the land and endured seven tough years living in an outdoor market with her children. Many women in rural Kenya meet the same fate when deeply rooted patriarchal cultural traditions and discriminatory practices deny widows their rightful share.

For those who see her behind the tray, it’s quite clear Toinha isn’t just any other Bahian selling typical food. What people don’t even suspect is that she’s the one who makes the palm oil used to prepare the acarajes she serves.
