Beautiful, complex, unique, essential. The Amazon never lacks eloquent adjectives, but they almost never account for its many facets, charms and challenges.
If you are interested in delving into the veins, roots and charms of the forest, the list of 10 documentaries to understand the Amazon prepared by the journalism platform Sumaúma is a great compass, calibrated by those who deeply understand the region. There are 10 productions available in streaming that bring a panorama of multiple perspectives and views. A great way to, as they say in Sumaúma, “Amazon yourself”.
“The Last Forest”, by Luiz Bolognesi (2021), is a classic example – and one of the Ferttil team’s favorites. You can watch the trailer by clicking here and below, and in full on Netflix.

Sumaúma is an initiative by renowned Brazilian journalist, writer and documentary filmmaker Eliane Brum, with her partner, Englishman Jonathan Watt, global environment editor at The Guardian. Both are two of the most powerful voices in ecological activist journalism, with a long list of award-winning reports and works. The project headquarters is in Médio Xingu, Pará, in the middle of the forest. Click here to learn more about this important work.
