A Wild Idea is a documentary about the Yasuni-ITT Initiative, Ecuador's unprecedented proposal for fighting global climate change. In exchange for payments from the world community, the country will leave untouched its largest oil reserves. If the proposal is accepted, it will conserve the Amazon's biodiversity, protect the rights of indigenous people and avoid the emission of millions of tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.
