    • Synopsis
    • Based on a script by Osvaldo Daicich, derived from an investigation he himself carried out with a team of collaborators, Porotos de Soja presents this emergency cinema project to deal with this matter in depth, trying to show the scenario of an unprecedented conflict that started only five months after the first female president elected by popular vote took her seat. With this idea in mind, they conducted a research documenting the different opinions of those who were part of the agrarian conflict sparked by Resolution 125, which imposed a sliding windfall duties system for oilseed and grains exports, especially for soy, a crop that reached extraordinary prices in international markets.
