Three women share a common goal: Carolina, Bertha and Maxima are leading today's fight against modern conquistadors. Whereas governments and corporations, trapped in a global race towards unlimited growth, need to get the cheapest raw materials, these three women tell us a story of tireless courage: how to keep fighting to protect nature when your life is at risk? When police repression, corporate harassment, injuries or even death threats are part of your daily routine? The Illusion of Abundance is not only a film about who pay the high price of 'development', it is above all a film about the globalization of Carolina, Bertha and Maxima's environmental resistance and their conviction to hunt down transnational corporations, wherever they hide.
