A Shaman's Tale || Short Film

“Sometimes the need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.” — Ken Kesey

A mystical journey of a powerful shaman from the deep jungle to the cosmos, based upon a very ancient Peruvian legend.

The old man wanted to find a way to heal people’s souls more profoundly so he sat under a tree and started to meditate for such a long time that at some point a vine sprouted from his chest and climbed on the tree up to the sky, becoming a link between the Earth and the Cosmos.

The vine was called Ayahuasca and the people from the village discovered that combined with the chacruna leaf, it had great healing properties.
