"The Burning Season" is a movie about a man named Chico Mendes who lived in Brazil. Chico wanted to help protect the rainforest where he lived and the animals that lived there too. He knew that cutting down the trees in the rainforest was bad for everyone, so he tried to stop people from doing it.
But there were some people who didn't like what Chico was doing. They wanted to cut down the trees so they could make money. They didn't care about the animals or the environment.
Chico tried to talk to these people and convince them to stop cutting down the trees, but they didn't listen. So Chico and his friends came up with a plan. They decided to peacefully protest and show people what was happening in the rainforest. They wanted to get the government to help save the rainforest too.
But things didn't go as planned. Some people got angry and violent. Chico was even shot and killed by some of the people who didn't want him to stop them from cutting down the trees.
The movie is about Chico's life and the things he did to try to save the rainforest. It shows how important it is to take care of the environment and protect the animals that live there."
