A day in the forest with the Yawanawá tribe. The sandy banks of the pristine Gregorio River. Samauma, the queen of the forest. Yawanawá man consecrating his Rumã (rapé) under the Samauma. Macaw enjoying a moments rest. View from Nova Esperança village over the forest. Tsunu bark harvested to make ash for Rapé. Cacique (chief) Biraci on a fishing trip. Young Yawanawá piloting a boat the old fashioned way. Diving and fishing. Throwing a net the way only a chief throws it. Taking some Rapé while on a break. Sharpening a machete for clearing a plantation. Dragging the boat to deeper water. O young Yawanawá navigator The days catch. Playing the guitar and singing songs in the afternoon. Sisters. Sun setting over the forest signalling the end of a well spent day in paradise. Heilige verbinding Amazon tribe creates 500-page traditional medicine encyclopedia Wat is Rapé?
