threatens the valley of the Magdalena River, its flora, fauna,
people and their way of living. A group of peasants and
fishermen, who have grown up under the shadow of “El Gigante”
(the giant), struggles against the multinational companies Enel,
Endesa and Impregilo. These companies are constructing the power
plant despite the voices of disagreement but with the blatant
complicity of the State institutions and the protection of the
Army. Through the voices of the protagonists and the actions
undertaken to protest, the documentary shows a year of a
struggle that has not yet finished.</p>
