This film explores potential consequences of a planned international airport in the Osa Peninsula rainforest, exposes tourism impacts on previously untouched places in Costa Rica, and highlights rural community travel, a new tourism model that provides answers to the current lack of economic options facing Osa's rural communities. The film follows a single mother who mines gold for a living, and an ex-hunter who now leads wildlife treks on his rainforest property, as they launch their rural tourism projects. The film raises awareness about the negative impacts of big tourism, promotes greater cross-cultural engagement, and inspires conscious travel. See less
