The Reserve

While most inhabitants of Monte Virgen harvest coffee, park ranger Julia discovers that the Reserve is being deforested by illegal loggers. Determined to stop them, she seeks the support of a fearful and indifferent community that will soon turn its back on her. Alone in this confrontation, the ranger will receive death threats and gradually lose everything she loves, with one exception: her dignity.
