Synopsis
Director Ciro Guerra used diaries of actual Amazon expeditions to inform his film, which depicts a pair of such trips, and the river guide who led both, first as a young warrior, and finally as an old man. Visually astonishing; a major work.
Presented by the Austin Film Society, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to empower our community to make, watch, and love film and creative media.
Presented in Partnership with Cine Las Americas
