Voice
of the Amazonian Rain Forest's approach is to immerse the
audience completely in Don Ignacio's conversation with the living world
and reacquaint us with our own intuitive experiences of nature.
Rather than a distanced journalist observing and reporting, or falling
into the trap of projecting a Western way of thought, the audience will
be spellbound by the profound and “magical” world of the shaman with
Don Ignacio Duri as our guide.
Interviews with scholars and experts –
conservationists, anthropologists and ethnographers – will
be used sparingly to substantiate the stories and help viewers understand
the cultural context. To illustrate Don Ignacio's stories we will
shoot footage of the rain forest and its inhabitants. Besides filming
on location in Peru we propose creating digital visual effects to
enhance the footage and dramatize ideas that cannot be captured
by camera alone.
