The film 'Women Who Sustain the Amazon' debuted recently in Santarém, West Pará, and focuses on the narratives of women who, despite not knowing each other, confront common challenges in the agricultural sector. Produced by the Pastoral Commission of the Land (CPT) linked to the Archdiocese of Santarém, the film highlights the daily realities, labor, and resilience of women farmers from various territories in the region. The documentary features intimate and powerful stories that reveal the significant contributions of these women to their communities.

The film includes accounts from women in the Jatobá community in Mojui dos Campos and those involved in the Sustainable Development Project Serra Azul in Monte Alegre. It emphasizes their pivotal roles not just in food production but also in nurturing families and protecting the environment. One of the featured participants, Ivanilde Santos, affectionately known as Irmãzona, speaks to the importance of collective labor and environmental conservation. She underscores that their endeavors go beyond farming—they involve a deep commitment to reforestation and sustainability practices.

Through the lens of these women, 'Women Who Sustain the Amazon' serves not only as a documentary but as a powerful message on the significance of women’s contributions in agriculture and the necessity of supporting their roles in facing environmental and social challenges. The film aims to inspire a greater recognition of female empowerment in rural settings and to advocate for the urgent need to preserve the Amazon rainforest, showcasing the inseparable link between women's strength and environmental stewardship.
