Supplementary note, 16.4.23: "It's amazing, except for the ending almost, this is basically the best film I've brushed in Beiying this time. It's an accident. Maybe I haven't experienced such aboriginal people who are closer to ethnography. Type of film? So intimidated? Anyway, it's generally better than Apocalypse and The Revenant. Especially the gramophone in the middle made me realize the default Western values behind the soundtrack in general. About knowledge transfer Some of the...

The Nature of Amazonian Culture
"Snake Embrace"
to tell the truth, but the attraction is the exotic culture. Amazon culture, as I understand it, what the film conveys is the culture of the native Indians. The basic elements of this culture, from the point of view of the film, are "natural culture" and "psychedelic culture". Worshiping nature and revering nature is a main feature of human primitive culture, because not only does it obtain all survival resources from nature, but also the power of primitive human beings is...

The river in the film is memory, civilization, and time. The two civilizations do not know which is the snake and which is the leopard. Those who used to treat patients with sincerity can only see the disappearance of Cuyana, but those who are deceived by false hearts are able to drink this magical plant. It is the understanding of the lonely natives for many years, and it is the continuation of the patient's life after 40 years. The embrace of the earth is the guide of the son of the python...

We can no longer return to the world ruled by God
Went to see Embrace of the Snake at the Art Cinema on Lastarrias Street on Sunday afternoon. When I saw the poster at the entrance of the cinema, I remembered where I had read the introduction of the film, and gave me the impression that this was a documentary.
The film does have a documentary feel to it at the beginning, and the black-and-white film makes this modern-day film seem more reminiscent of the past.
During the viewing process, I kept reminding myself that there were...

European Caucasians, who forcibly invaded and plundered Central and South America and the Amazon as early as the end of the fifteenth century, are now chasing that lost primitive in their dreams. This is a low-budget film that advocates humanistic and environmental protection. The philosophical ideas expressed in the film can be experienced by everyone's wisdom. I have no idea when I watch it, so I have to appreciate it as an excellent photographic...

Amazon Odyssey, departure and return, past and present. The wildness of the natives has been deprived of modern civilization, and it has become a hollow chullachaqui, the return of the "old man", and its memory has been re-given. Follow the water, follow the wind, follow the voice of the ancestors. I like the connection between the two stories, which is smooth and harmonious, as if the memory is looming back. The Jungle Ministry was filmed, and the difficulty can be imagined. The ambient sound...

Boating on land, a revelation of the collision between barbarism and modern civilization, the mysterious plant Yakuna is like the black stone in 2001 Space Odyssey, the waving bones connect the cosmic civilization, and a long shot of running water also evokes two paragraphs After decades of historical time and space, a similar series of great images of "star gates" appeared at the end. When the butterflies are around, the natural civilization meets at that moment, the witch doctor quietly...

The plantation economy and the arrogant exploration of human beings cannot conquer the primitive wildness of the Amazon jungle. The civilization built by white people today is also fragile in the vast nature, and people can only use social numbness to numb their fears. The ending catches up with "2001 A Space Odyssey", an unparalleled viewing...

After burning out, what remains is memory. Human civilization is actually built on the pain of destruction, otherwise it is...
Old Karamakate: To become warriors, the cohiuanos must abandon all and go alone to the jungle, guided only by their dreams. In this journey, he has to find out, in solitude and silence, who he really is. He must become a wanderer dream. Many are lost, and some never return. But those who return they are ready to face what is to come.
Young Karamakate: Knowledge belongs to all. You do not understand that. You are just a white man.
Young Karamakate: A chullachaqui. We all have one, it resembles us, but it is empty, hollow. A chullachaqui has no memory. He just wanders the world, empty, like a ghost, lost in a time without time.
