- Summary:
- In the heart of the Amazonian forest, the Tumuc Humac region is a restricted area where, supposedly, none has ever lived. However, according to local Indian legends, this region was home to Kailawa, a powerful warrior and shaman that once ruled over the various inhabitants and gave birth to his own people: the Wayanas. During one month a group of scientists has decided to research the reality behind this mysterious Amazonian legend.
