    European Caucasians, who forcibly invaded and plundered Central and South America and the Amazon as early as the end of the fifteenth century, are now chasing that lost primitive in their dreams. This is a low-budget film that advocates humanistic and environmental protection. The philosophical ideas expressed in the film can be experienced by everyone's wisdom. I have no idea when I watch it, so I have to appreciate it as an excellent photographic...

    Amazon Odyssey, departure and return, past and present. The wildness of the natives has been deprived of modern civilization, and it has become a hollow chullachaqui, the return of the "old man", and its memory has been re-given. Follow the water, follow the wind, follow the voice of the ancestors. I like the connection between the two stories, which is smooth and harmonious, as if the memory is looming back. The Jungle Ministry was filmed, and the difficulty can be imagined. The ambient sound...

    Boating on land, a revelation of the collision between barbarism and modern civilization, the mysterious plant Yakuna is like the black stone in 2001 Space Odyssey, the waving bones connect the cosmic civilization, and a long shot of running water also evokes two paragraphs After decades of historical time and space, a similar series of great images of "star gates" appeared at the end.

    The plantation economy and the arrogant exploration of human beings cannot conquer the primitive wildness of the Amazon jungle. The civilization built by white people today is also fragile in the vast nature, and people can only use social numbness to numb their fears. The ending catches up with "2001 A Space Odyssey", an unparalleled viewing...

    7.5/10. The story of two white explorers in the Amazon who found the same witch doctor at different times to find Yakruna (hereinafter referred to as Y). The two narrative lines alternate and finally form a circle - which also echoes the sentimental and rounded way of thinking of the aborigines. Interesting structure. Why use black and white? According to the director, it is because Amazon is different from before. Since it cannot be restored, it is better to use black and white to leave the...

    In the afternoon, I watched the works of two directors, and I didn't particularly like this director. It is the kind of work that is difficult to produce without one's own culture. His video style is not as accurate as the audio-visual skills of the films in the three main competitions, and it is difficult to have a strong impact on the theme of this speech, but he is shooting their national culture, and he is born with the right to speak in this regard. , in the eyes of foreigners, it has a...

    Amazon Dream Traveler, an elegy of a lost civilization. Herzog-like texture, the connection between time and space is mysterious. If you don't throw away your belongings, you'll never find the promised land. When physically and mentally exhausted, it is difficult to digest a highly divine and poetic film, otherwise, you will fall into a deep dream together with the...
