The green Poncho of the Andes is a documentary about the history of a fabulous forest creation in the Peruvian Andes. The forest covers now 40.000 ha and improved strongly the communities’ life conditions.
Since 1973, Peruvian visionaries with the help of Belgian Cooperation ministeries and European funds, initiated this forestation program in the poorest region of the Andes.
The documentary shows how the forest has been created, how it has been accepted and how it is generating more jobs every day.
