Deep in the Amazon in Iquitos, Peru, thrives an international tourism around Ayahuasca, a powerful hallucinogenic remedy brewed by shamans.
Called con men by some and miracle workers by others, every shaman has a fascinating story to tell. This project aims to capture those marvelous and complex stories, reserving neither praise nor judgment.
As they guide us through the magnificent rainforest, each raises questions on the exploitation/benefits of tourism, the nature of illness and healing, and the mysteries of the universe and the human psyche.
Ultimately, we hope this journey renews our audience with a sense of wonder and mystery.
