A seven-year journey into the spiritual and cultural rebirth of the Huni Kuin people
Directed by Lara Jacoski and Patrick Belem, this 70-minute documentary offers a deeply human and spiritual portrayal of the Huni Kuin people, whose journey from cultural suppression to revival stands as a testament to resilience and connection with the natural world. Filmed over seven years in the remote Novo Futuro Village, at the heart of the Amazon, the film captures the reawakening of a community through its sacred forest medicine, ayahuasca, and the renewal of rituals, music, and collective memory.
The directors’ approach is rooted in coexistence and respect. Before filming, they lived alongside the Huni Kuin, participating in their daily lives, songs, and ceremonies to capture an intimate and truthful depiction of their reality. The result is a film that goes beyond documentation, evoking a sensory experience that celebrates the beauty, simplicity, and spiritual depth of Indigenous life.
Featuring community leaders such as Ninawa Pai da Mata and produced by Bem-te-vi Productions, the film also benefits from international collaboration with Joakim Hauge, Oona Chaplin, Alex Moreno, and Torstein Grude. Beyond its visual splendour, the film serves as a call to rediscover ancestral values and the possibility of living in balance with ourselves, our roots, and the planet.
Widely acclaimed across the world, the documentary has been honoured with numerous awards, including Best Cultural Diversity Film at the Human-Environment Care Film Festival, Best Film at the Festival International du Film Chamanique, and Recognition Award at the EthnoKino Film Festival in Switzerland.
