Embrace of the Serpent is a visually stunning film that explores the impact of colonialism on the Amazon through the eyes of Karamakate, the last survivor of his tribe. The narrative intertwines two journeys taken 40 years apart by European explorers who seek his guidance to find a sacred healing plant. The film poignantly captures the clash between indigenous cultures and Western ambitions, and offers a profound meditation on memory, loss, and the interconnectedness of humanity and nature.
