Embrace of the Serpent
Karamakate, an Amazonian shaman, last survivor of his people, dwells in the jungle. Decades of solitude have turned him into an empty shell of a human, devoid of memories and emotion. His life is shaken by Evan, an American ethnobotanist. Together they embark on a journey into the heart of the Amazon in which past, present and future are intertwined.
