Storyline & Synopsis

Deep within the Amazon lives a people who have preserved their own culture and customs for more than 10,000 years. Known in the West as the Yanomami, sometimes called the “last Stone Age people,” they number about 20,000 today. Living in groups of 40 to 200, they are scattered throughout the vast jungle spanning Brazil and Venezuela. After nearly ten years of negotiations with the Brazilian government and seven tribal elders, the filmmakers became the first television crew ever granted permission for an extended stay within a Yanomami community.
