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 and the dream. The mysterious totem painting presents the wisdom and philosophy of the indigenous people. Kulamekad merged the two civilizations. He restored his soul to this homeland, and was brought to us by the healed white people.
