"Based on filmmaker Armando Robles Godoy's own experiences of home-steading in the Peruvian jungle, The green wall tells the story of a young settler who tries to escape the bureaucracy of life in Lima with his wife and son by starting a farm in the Peruvian jungle, only to experience more problems and setbacks."
"Armando Robles Godoy's autobiographical story is an extension of Robinson Crusoe and Henry David Thoreau. The film concerns a young family that decides to escape the pressures of life in Lima. The plot revolves around their efforts to maintain a self-sufficient lifestyle in the midst of the Peruvian jungle, "the green wall." (Does not circulate)."
"Based on filmmaker Armando Robles Godoy's own experiences home-steading in the Peruvian jungle, The Green Wall reflects on the satisfactions and perils of life off the grid. A father and former office worker leaves the city of Lima with his small family and enlists himself in a government program to colonize the Peruvian jungle. He is given a large tract of land in the wilderness, where he clears the rich soil and grows coffee. As the weeks pass he builds a simple bamboo home for his wife and his small boy with a veranda that overlooks a little stream. The boy loves the trickle of the flowing water, and builds his own toy city there out of blocks and pieces of tin, glass and string. The stream contains a waterwheel that tinkles against a glass jar. Its music is part of the soft murmur of the forest along with the bird calls, the sound of leaves brushing against each other and the coughs of the animals. The Green Wall is a visual poem about the life of a few intelligent, self-sufficient pioneers who understand and respect the land they are cultivating."
