"The Xingu River obeys no laws; it has been restoring and resurrecting spirits against all the evil that has been done to it," proclaims Dona Raimunda, who, with her double-edged axe, justly separates evil from good. Her struggle exposes the harsh reality of segregation experienced by riverside communities, riverside dwellers, and Indigenous people in the Volta Grande do Xingu, in Altamira, Pará, since the construction of the Belo Monte Dam.
