Summary:

Analysis of the story of the origin of yerba mate, based on Guarani mythology, in which Nhanderu transformed his daughter into a yerba mate tree, whose leaves provide joy and strength. The narrative also explores Guarani knowledge about good living, the preservation of the Atlantic Rainforest and the consequences of the capitalist exploitation of yerba mate, which contributes to the devastation of native forests.
