Summary:

"It is very commonly experienced by the people who come here [the jungle] to realize 'I thought it was gonna be about Ayahuasca'...but it is about the songs" - Dr. Joe Tafur. The Song That Calls You Home is a personal, scientific and mystical exploration of Amazonian curanderismo — with focus on Ayahusca and Master Plants, their healing and visionary properties and risks — along with the wondrous world of the Shipibo people and Songs. In recent years the use of Ayshuasca has become widely known, however, there is not much information about other rainforest Master Plants that have medicinal qualities and capacity to bring about profound healing and transformation. In this film we explore the realm of Amazonian plants and the Shipibo traditional way of establishing a connection with the spirit through diet and ceremony. This film aims to function as a bridge for those seeking to understand the facts and dynamics behind one of the most intriguing phenomena of our time — Ayahuasca Tourism.
