It brings together images of the territory (rivers, forest, and wildlife), community assemblies and meetings, peaceful marches with flags, maps of the oil blocks and of the work zones with machinery, and a chronological account that begins with the creation of the association in 1998 and covers events from 2010 to 2015. According to the video's captions, the speakers are Juan Muyuy Ch (ACIMVIP lawyer), Miguel Jacanamejoy (leader of the San Miguel de la Castellana Reservation), and Robinson Lopez Descanse (president of ACIMVIP). It mentions the Ministry of the Interior, the company Gran Tierra Energy, the La Cabaña well, and the San Miguel de la Castellana Reservation, and states that the Directorate of Prior Consultation denied the presence of Indigenous communities in the exploratory drilling area.
