Synopsis

In the upper region of the Negro river, near the municipality of São Gabriel da Cachoeira, in the indigenous land Balaio, shamans from Pueblo Ye’epá Mahsã meet. This meeting had not been celebrated for more than a 100 years because it was forbidden by the salessian missionaries. Led by Álvaro Tukano, family members from every generation, villages and ethnicities bind their knowledges and traditions for an exceptional celebration.
