Conservationists story
mind-wax22 February 2021
A delightful jaught through the experience of a few conservationists and why they were drawn to the amazonas, it's people, and why protecting the area as a protected reserve while maintaining the indigenous community rights through modern times is important.

I recommend watching this in tandem with the film Embrace of the Serpent Original title: El abrazo de la serpiente 2015 , perhaps as a closing for a movie marathon.

Not a Masterpiece Just Watchable.

Warning: Spoilers
This Documentary is mostly not linear, has a story based narrative and not innerly researches the natives lives, culture nor the nature of the amazons. Nevertheless the nobel story of humanitarian people who had and have been struggle save the amazons and their culture against the looter nations (especially about rubber) is told enough.

Therefore for paying respect to the hard laborers who cared for these people and the nature of the amazons, I watched this documentary till the end.

To be honest nothing new excited me about it. Hardly learn new things, however the peaceful documentarians, The memory of Professor Schultes and beautiful people of amazons took me in.

beautiful but lacks purpose

Great cinematography and sound editing. score got pretty repetitive. pacing was very very poor, as well as structure. main critique was the prevalent white saviourism and exoticism from the central narrator. for that reason and others, this is a slightly less than average documentary film, as i am still not sure what its purpose was.
