In 1996, a Brazilian official and a Swedish journalist ventured into the Amazon to document the isolated Korubo tribe caught in escalating land conflicts. Initially hailed as a heroic breakthrough, the footage now demands to be reexamined. Uncovering the hidden costs of “discovery,” the film confronts the colonial legacy and exposes the long-term repercussions for the Korubo.
