The film, Amazon Tears - Through Her Eyes provides a rare opportunity to meet the women of the Peruvian Amazon, as they face rapid changes in their remote area, due to international industry, technology and population growth.

Since 2003 the government has leased more than 70% of the Peruvian Amazon to oil companies, forever altering the way of life along the river. Each woman opens up about the reality of their day-to-day existence, challenges, relationships and hopes for their future.
