We Are Green and Trembling

From deep in the wilds of the New World, Antonio de Erauso writes a letter to his aunt, the prioress of the convent he escaped as a young girl. Since leaving his past behind, he`s become Antonio, conquistador. Now, hiding in the jungle and hounded by the army he deserted, Antonio is caring for two Guaraní girls he rescued from enslavement. But the New World has one more metamorphosis in store, which might save them all from extinction. We Are Green and Trembling is a masterful subversion of Latin American history, religious tyranny and the mistreatment of women and indigenous people - finding in the rainforest a magical space where transformation is not only possible but necessary.
