In the heart of Lokolama, a village in the Democratic Republic of Congo, lies a vast network of tropical peatlands storing significant amounts of carbon. The villagers, led by traditional chief Papa Joseph, face threats from loggers like Guy who aim to exploit the valuable resources hidden beneath the surface. The delicate balance between neighboring villages like Penzele and Lokolama is disrupted as disputes over land ownership and resource extraction intensify. The arrival of researchers sheds light on the importance of preserving these peatlands to mitigate climate change impacts. However, suspicions arise among locals regarding outsiders' intentions and motives, leading to tensions and conflicts within the community.
