About the film

When Two Worlds Collide takes us to the forefront of the battle for Peru’s future. When President Alan Garcia tries to extract oil and minerals from the Amazonian virgin land under the argument of increasing economic prosperity of his country he meets the opposition led by the indigenous leader Alberto Pizango. The film captures all sides of a conflict that escalates quickly from a heated verbal war to an extreme violent one.
