Hey, stop the work! I've found something!
Why have we stopped?
I'm on tight deadline here, Mr, Kirin,
Yeah, well,,,
We're not stopping for another trinket you've found,
These markings are ancient Arawakan,
The motifs are similar to Curupira,
Curupira?
Curupira, he's a legend,
Protector of the Amazon,
Not very good at it, is he?
What was that?
You see that?
Looks like it's glowing,
Maybe it's the sun,
No, it's not the sun,
Okay, my friend, you and me,
- We know how this works, - What?
We come to an arrangement,
Nobody else knows this artifact exists,
I know some guys, Let me take care of this,
You get 20%,
On your salary, you'll be set for life,
Thank you, but you know I can't do that,
I'm here on bequest of the government
to protect this jungle,
That's what I do, it's my job
- Your Curupira? - Yeah,
Amigos, pull up the statue,
Look, that artifact is very old,,,
and likely one of a kind,
Moreno,,,
What do you think you're doing?
Hey, Moreno! Leave it alone!
Captain?
What?
Are you Lebecq?
You have my money?
Yeah, I do,
Give it to me,
Okay, that is Sark, that's Teese, They work for me,
She's coming with us,
My brother, Scott? I take it he isn't here yet?
Lebecq?
What?
It was my understanding this was a private charter,
Her money's as good as yours,
Yeah?
Doubt it,
Let's see,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, all right,
Help her onboard,
Careful with this,
Traveling together now, so might as well get acquainted,
My name's Mandy Kirin,
My brother, Scott, will hopefully be along any minute,
Kirin, huh?
- Yeah, - I get it,
You're traveling my direction,
I'm Vera Ortek,
Ortek?
Your firm hired my father,
You've some clue where he is, I take it?
I don't know a damn thing,
We lost all contact with the site about four days ago,
And in this part of the world, that's not good,
Okay, we leave for Ixiporuan,
We can't leave yet, My brother's not here,
Then he's late,
I don't want my boat out after dark,
He will have to find his own way,
We paid for two tickets!
The water up there is lousy with drug traffickers and pirates,
They have guns and arrows,
They will kill everyone on this boat for the fun of it, so no,
Excuse me?
Excuse you?
Listen, little lady,,,
This here is a lovely place for vacation,
But your days of being a tourist stopped
the moment you stepped onto my boat,
There are hundreds of dangers out there,
And I don't like you because you are a foreigner,
You say you want to find your father, yes?
So follow my rules,
Do as I say!
Let's go!
Mandy! I'm coming!
Scott, hurry up!
I'm coming!
My stuff! My stuff!
- Goddamn it, Scott! - All my gear's in there!
You couldn't be on time just once? Just once?
Mandy, it's not my fault, okay?
The plane got held up in Sao Paula because of weather!
I'm lucky I even made it at all!
Of course, It's never your fault,
Can we not do this now, please?
Damn it!
Hey,
“Yamanini Hieroglyphics”?
You making this a work trip, sis?
Yeah, It's called being prepared, Scott,
Right,
I see the apple doesn't fall far from the tree,
What?
Your dad is a fellow teaching
about Indigenous Amazonian Tribes,
What are you?
Not that,
She's a professor of ancient language arts,
Hi, I'm Scott Kirin,
I work at a mall,
Vera Ortek,
She runs the firm that hired dad,
Cool, So you know where he is?
I have a crew out there, including your father,
and my business partner,
All vanished without a trace,
Okay, so what did the state police say to you, though?
Because they didn't have much to say to us,
And now they've all but stopped looking,
The cops already think it was drug traffickers,
Case closed,
Brazilian Navy had a patrol boats and choppers
combing the area and found nothing,
And the Foreign Office told me, point blank,
anyone missing out here for a week
is typically never heard from again,
They told us the same thing,
So that leaves us what? 48 hours?
But my team conducted a lengthy risk assessment
of that region, paid off any locals
who might become a problem, and we hired the rest,
Up the river, you get all kinds,
Every kilometer, something new, different,
Sometimes is good, sometimes not so good,
Okay, But what about where we're going?
What?
Great, It sounds exactly like a place dad would go,
Guess that's why the Foreign Office
discouraged us from coming here,
Yeah, well, whatever, That was never an option,
Our dad's out there, so if no one else
is gonna look for him, we will, right?
Yeah,
Sark! Get ready to dock!
Amanda, wait,
Come here,
What?
Word of advice,
They don't like or trust outsiders,
So if you're going to talk to anyone,
talk to the young ones, yeah?
They're more patient with strangers,
But I can't guarantee you'll get answers,
Okay,
This place looks abandoned,
Is this where they worked?
Where they slept,
They worked about two miles south down the river,
Where is everybody?
Maybe they're working, We should go there,
I see no signs of struggle, no attack, no bodies anywhere,
Wait, Well, wait, Whoa, whoa? Attack?
From who?
Cattle ranchers, rival tribes, the common cold,
Take your pick,
And this is where my father was staying?
As far as I was aware, yes,
I was hoping someone was here maybe,
even if it were just a cook or the scrapping crew,
I don't like this,
It's like they all just vanished into thin air,
Hello?
Hello? Hello?
Well, whatever happened, they left in a hurry,
And so fast, they leave their equipment
and their liquor behind, It's not good,
Look out!
Careful! There are animals everywhere!
Great,,,
Amanda!
Hey! Hey!
- I found something! - Hopefully, a cell tower,
Amanda! Amanda, I got Dad's jacket,
This is Dad's journals,
his documents, his papers, everything,
This is his work, his research,,,
Yeah!
There's got to be some clue in here, right?
Some clues where he was going?
I don't know,
Vera!
Amanda, I got his journal,
Here is my dad's stuff, his journals, everything,
So what's it say? Any clues?
He keeps mentioning something,
Maybe it's a place?
Sem Saida,
Have you heard of it?
You sure that's what it says?
Yeah, Yeah, yeah, Why?
Sem saida translates to "no way out,"
Let me see that,
Hey, what is it?
Vera, what's in Sem Saida?
Vera! What's in Sem Saida?
Nothing!
Sorry, Dad, gotta borrow some stuff,
What's wrong with her?
We need to go to Sem Saida,
Ah!
Freeze!
Don't move,
What are they?
Are they dangerous?
They're dart frogs,
Frogs? We're scared of frogs now?
Shut up, Scott!
Dart frogs are very poisonous,
I,,, I didn't know,
Quiet!
What do I do?
Walk backwards towards me,
Slowly,
Oh,,, oh,,,
Shit!
Move! Move!
Run! Run!
- Run, run! - Shit!
Ah!
Ow!
Lebecq!
Lebecq! Lebecq!
Lebecq, Are you okay?
Cut it off,
- What? - No, no, no! Don't!
There has to be another way!
Cut quickly before the poison moves!
No, no! There has to be another way!
No, no, no! There has to be another way!
Do it! Do it!
Don't do it!
I'm gonna be sick,
Don't do it!
No, no, there has to be another way!
Do it! Do it now!
Oh, God!
Don't do that!
What is this? What?
Who are you?
I do it, I do it!
Sark, do it!
Quick! It's moving up my leg!
Do it now!
Can you save him?
Thank you, old man, this does not concern you!
Wait, wait, What's he saying?
He says no hospital,
He'll be fine,
- What? - He can walk,
He's saying we should not be here,
Wait, wait, wait! Do you live here?
Do you know where the others went?
Ask him, ask him,
The destruction of the Amazon has awoken the Curupira,
Great,
Wait,,, The Curu,,, what?
Get out of here with that garbage,
I have to get back to my boat,
This man knows nothing!
The Curupira is a forest creature,
the protector of the Amazon,
Are we good then?
Ask him why he thinks it's the Curupira,
How about we don't ask him
and we figure out where everybody is by looking around,
No! Mythology and folklore have deep roots
within indigenous cultures,
The truth is buried within the stories they tell,
Ask him!
What did he say?
It is the reason why the village is empty,
They fear the wrath,
They gave the outsiders food and shelter,,,
Or it's because of drug dealers or something else,
But it's definitely not a forest creature, okay?
We're looking for my father, Nicolas Kirin,
He says if you're father is still alive,
the Curupira has him as a prisoner now,
Ignore him!
Hey, wait, wait, wait, Who has my father?
Where is he?
What? What is he saying?
Find the Heart of the jungle, Find him,
Destroy the Heart if you wish to free him,
Guys, we're not looking for a heart, okay?
We are looking for my business partner,
We are looking for my goddamned business
which was here and now it's not!
What? What is he saying?
If you find and kill the Heart,
your father will be free,
Wait, What is this heart?
We have to find the heart, the heart?
Sark,,,
He says we have to destroy
the heart of the jungle or we all die,
Real prophet of doom, this one is,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're all doomed,
Can we get started again?
Wait, Your leg!
What?
It's fine, I was wrong,
They weren't the poisonous kind, otherwise I would be dead,
This man has done nothing, We have to go now,
We need to go to Sem Saida,
What? No!
You chartered me to go to Ixiporuan!
We went, There was nothing there,
So we go home,
I chartered you to find my business partner
and my business,
Yeah, and what about our dad?
We can go to Tamadare,
That's where he was working, yeah?
Not according to his books!
Where's Sem Saida?
About three kilometers down the river,
And you think that's where your father is?
Yes,
No! He was wrong! There are no roads to Sem Saida!
They would not even be able to get the equipment there, so,,,
What if they used a boat?
Nein! No!
Look, I was paid to take you to Ixiporuan,
I went,
To go to Sem Saida will cost you more, a lot more,
Name your price, It's covered,
You're chasing fiction,
Chasing a fiction that will get you nothing,
nothing but killed,
Name my price, eh? Are you sure?
Just get us there,
Sem Saida!
Hey!
Maybe there's something in here on the heart as well,,,
This isn't a treasure hunt, okay?
We're here to find dad,
No, I get that, okay? But what if there's,,,
No, Scott, no!
This isn't one of your get-rich quick schemes, okay?
What if the heart is real?
Like the Curupira?
No, no, not like that,
Like what if dad found it and he's in trouble?
What?
"There was another exchange with the local tribes last night,
"I heard shouting and then gunshots,
"I ran outside the RV but Moreno yelled at me to go back,
I saw a Yanomami tribesman on the ground, bloodied,"
Who's Moreno?
Arlen Moreno, my business partner,
the one who hired your father,
Yeah, well, it sounds like your business partner
- shot one of the locals, - Excuse me?
Scott! You don't know that!
What? Dad wrote it! It's right there!
This place is messed up!
God only knows what's waiting for us in Sem Saida,
Mr, Lebecq allows you to drink during business hours?
Some operation he's running here,
Water,,, it's bad for you,
It's all contaminated, Make you very sick,
This thing, bad news,
Here, Much better,
And when the flies bite us, they drop dead,
All right, hit me,
I could use it right about now,
Okay,
Cheers, gentlemen,
Salud,
Oh, yeah, that's awful,
Hey, Those frogs came outta nowhere,
Have you ever seen anything like that before?
This is the Amazon, Anything is possible,
Anything?
Yeah,
This place is a mystery, so big, so unexplored,
Big enough for the Curupira?
I've lived all over the world, so many places,
But here, we learn about
anacondas that can swallow you whole,
the black caimans that will follow you into the jungle
and hunt you down for miles,
the piranhas that will eat your flesh in seconds,
But it's the Curupira that parents tell their children
to keep them out of the jungle,
You see, the Curupira will enter your mind and confuse you,
It will scream a thousand screams
and make your brain melt,
The Curupira will drive you mad,
Okay, but it didn't work, did it?
I mean, you're still here in the jungle,
Brave men have disappeared looking for legends
such as this Curupira and the heart of the jungle,
It is said to be a mystical emerald stone,
which holds supernatural powers,
Many men have sought to claim these powers,
Their efforts only proving one thing,,,
Which is?
Men die, legends do not,
Very nice,
Have one with us,
No, just makes me tired,
Makes me happy,
So my dad keeps mentioning two words in his journal,
belipshí and maepe,
I'm thinking maepe means something like water
or lake,
But I'm not sure what,
I thought you taught languages,
I do, but there's the whole,,,
Yeah, The Amazon has hundreds of tribes,
Yeah, and each one has their own name for things,
Captain Lebecq knows some of these languages much better,
What else has he written in your book, huh?
Anything about how Moreno had a side job?
What are you talking about?
Moreno was misappropriating funds,
What?
He was stealing from us,
I was actually on my way to go fire him when he went missing,
Lucky for him, huh?
Hey, my dad's missing too!
And so is my entire crew!
Obviously,
You don't think that my dad was stealing,,,
I don't know, okay?
I'm just beginning to think this jungle
does funny things to people,
My dad wouldn't steal anything, okay?
He's an archeologist,
Hey, what's so funny?
Look, my dad loved this land,
He did, okay?
He loved it more than he loved spending time with us,
Here,
For what it's worth, I think you two are good kids,
Came all the way out here for your father,
That takes courage, you know?
Salud,
Amanda?
I found something in dad's journal,
two words,,,
belipshí and maepe,
That's Shiriana dialect,
From the Xiriana tribe,
Very good,
That's a small tribe,
No, thank you,
What do you think they mean?
What? Are you hearing that?
What was that? Did we hit something?
We're still hitting it? Is that the boat?
No, it's not the boat,
Do you see anything?
What am I looking for?
Hey! If it's a caiman, stay away!
They can pull you off the boat!
Look!
Piranhas!
Oh, my God!
Nasty things, aren't they?
Everyone, hold on!
Amanda, take the wheel!
What's happening with the motor?
Teese?
What's happening?
Is everything okay?
It's fine,,, it's,,, it's gross,
You see? I told you this way was dangerous,
Piranhas mean business,
Okay,
We just have to attach it fast,
Ah!
Teese, no!
Sark, where's Teese? Where's Teese?
Teese!
You need to get us out of here now!
We have no motor!
The fish will attack us here, We're all going to die!
I know! Let me think,
They're ripping into the hull, We've started to sink!
The poles! The poles! Go!
Grab the poles, on the side!
The hook poles! Go! Push off!
Grab the boat hooks! Everyone! Stab into the water!
We have to keep the piranhas away from the boat
while we're coasting to the riverbank!
Go! Harder! Harder!
- I'm doing it! - Harder!
That's it!
I got it, I got it!
Pull them up, pull them up!
Go, go, go, go!
Oh God,
Is everyone okay?
Yes,
Do these fish typically eat boats?
They do now,
Great,
How do we get out of here?
The river's a death trap, the jungle's a death trap,
I warned you!
Can we walk from here? How close are we to Sem Saida?
Not so far, actually,
About 1,2 kilometers,
No!
It's too dangerous for you,
Yeah, exactly,
Mr, Lebecq, I am paying you to take us to Sem Saida,
Whether we go by foot or by boat makes no difference,
Move out,
Wait, now,,, Hey, wait!
Don't I get a vote?
Yeah, you could vote,
Stay here with the piranhas or walk with your sissy sister,
Come on, Scott!
How much further is it?
In my day, I would have loved to have roamed the Amazon,
Do you fellas ever take a break?
We are entering territory that's going to be very hostile,
Very dangerous,
The locals don't like intruders,
The intruders are just as dangerous as the pirates,
The pirates are not just on the water,
So what do belipshí and maepe mean?
Sun and water,
Hey, I was right about water,
Could it be a shaman's prayer?
Maybe it's something dad wrote
that has a deeper meaning that's lost in translation?
Yeah,
The Yanomami believe everything in nature has a spirit,
Well, that explains the Curupira,
Absolutely,
I just don't know why dad was writing about it,
Maybe it's not a prayer, Maybe they're clues,
Yeah, like a location,
It could be telling us where the heart of the jungle is,
Or where to find the Curupira,
No, it's a prayer, only a prayer, as you said,
You don't want to find the heart of the jungle, Lebecq?
The Heart has made strong men weak, and weak men crazy,
It will do you no good to think of this,
Yeah, but it could be the only clue to finding my dad,,,
Unless you don't think he's still alive, do you?
I only know what I know,
Amanda! Amanda, slow down!
We gotta stick together!
Wait up? Slow down!
No! I can't slow down, Scott!
The State Department has given up on him!
The Brazilian government has certainly given up on him!
Now his own son has called it quits,
I didn't say that!
- Amanda! - No!
I'm the only one that still wants to find dad!
That's,,, That's not true! I'm not calling it quits!
Will you hurry up?
If there is only one thing,,,
Maybe you and I can work out a deal,
How's that? Huh?
Help! Help me!
Go away!
Come on, help me! I'm really hurt!
Someone help me!
You can't leave me to die out here with this thing!
You have to help me! Help!
These hallucinations are growing stronger and stronger,
This makes four days now, four days now,
It's getting more intensified,
I mean, this Curupira,,,
I mean, it wants me,
My company,
Great,
This means we must be close,
Stop! Don't move!
Why are we stopping?
Back, Back up,
Lebecq?
Lebecq!
Yeah?
There are two more behind us,
Run!
- Mandy! - Get back to the boat!
Get back! Get back to the boat!
Come on!
Vera!
My brother!
Hurry! Let's go!
No, my brother is back there!
Yeah, So is the woman who's paying me a shit ton of money!
Go!
But if we stay, we die!
You don't get your brother and I don't get my money!
We go there!
Let's go! Here!
Amanda, quick, quick!
Is that a bloody hammock?
Bloody hammock, where?
Behind you,
Oh, shit!
Yeah, that's a warning,
We are in Yanomami territory,
What?
I thought you said we weren't far from Sem Saida,
Well, we must be close,
Tying the knot of the hammock
on which a tribal member sleeps
is a symbolic gesture of departure from the tribe,
That is most undoubtedly blood,
Blood?
What? Is it a warning?
To who? To my dad?
The other workers?
To their own,
Do not be tempted to join the outsiders
or you'll be dealt with by the tribe and cast out,
The intruders have come here unwelcome, uninvited,
So they are fighting back anyway they can
to keep the lands from being decimated,
There is no telling what has happened in Sem Saida,
We go now,
This way,
Amanda? Lebecq?
Hello?
Anyone?
Damn it,
Amanda?
Lebecq?
Hello?
You have no idea where you're going, do you?
Lady, you need to be quiet!
You're lost!
Shh!
You wanna tell me what you're doing right now?
This way,
- We go this way, - Why is that?
It's a slope,
First rule of being lost in the jungle,
you go downhill, travel downhill,
Every valley leads to water, okay?
We find the river, follow it back to the boat,
Hello?
Wait!
- What? - I hear something,
Hello, anyone!
Did you hear that?
- Scott? - Hello?
- He's this way! - Wait, wait, wait, wait!
I will go first,
Oh, cut the macho crap, will you?
You don't know this terrain!
- Hello? - Scott!
Scott! I hear you! We're here!
We're coming for you!
Hello?
This is leading us deep into the forest,
- Hello? - Scott!
Scott, we're here!
- No, stop! - We're coming for you!
Scott, can you hear us? Scott?
Vera, Vera!
Something is not right,
What? What are you talking about?
It's Scott,
Every time he calls out to us,
it is as if he says this identical to the last time,
What? What are you talking about?
Scott, Every time he calls out for us,
it sounds identical to the last time,
What?
It's like he's saying the same exact thing
the same way each time like a record,
Hello? Hello?
Scott! Where are you?
Hello? Anyone? Anyone?
I think you're right,
We should go back now, We go this way, okay?
They might be watching us,
Who? Who might be watching us?
Shh!
- Who might be watching,,, - Shh!
- Who might be watching us? - Shh!
If something is housed,,,
If a jewel is housed
and takes the power out of the body
of the Curupira and is imprisoned in a gem,,,
Curupira is in the gem
and the gem is housed or imprisoned in a house,
a manmade structure
taking the power from the Curupira into that gem,,,
It's the spirit,,,
the spirit of the Curupira,
It's the heart of the jungle,
Captain, Captain,,,
Is this the construction site?
Yeah,
They left their tools here,
What do you think they were digging?
Maybe they were building a road to get all the timber out,
Yah! Ouch!
- What? - Sheisse, sheisse!
Bullet ants! Very nasty creatures,
Well, they definitely looked like they left in a hurry,
Well, what do you think would prompt them
to evacuate so quickly?
The ants?
Well, if one of the workers got attacked,
they'd be in very bad shape,
But it would not take an entire camp
to get him medical attention,
This makes no sense,
It looks like they moved out very, very quickly,
My dad's journal keeps mentioning things
about neighboring tribes,
Yes, the Yanomami,
The Yanomami are no longer warring factions
against each other,,,
Now they have a common enemy, called Xawara,
That means the plague of the outsiders,
which is all of this,,, and you,
Yeah, and you, right?
Unless you're one of the Yanomami,
Yeah, and me, yeah,
Look, For all we know, the locals hired by Vera's man,
they turned on them, yeah?
I don't want to say, but maybe some of
the local tribes killed them all
in ritual sacrifice ordered by the shamans,
I'm sorry, I don't know,,,
No,
Mass human sacrifices haven't been recorded since the Incas
in the 1500s, That's not what happened,
Listen,
Hear that? Look around you,
You're in a land that time has forgotten,
- Hello? - Dad?
Dad?
Anyone? Hello?
Amanda?
Dad?
- Hello? - Amanda?
Is that you?
- Dad? - Dad?
Hello?
Mandy? Scott?
Hey, kids!
Dad? Anyone!
- Dad! - Hello!
Kids?
Hello?
Amanda? Lebecq?
Hello? Anyone?
Amanda?
Shh! Wait, wait!
Come on, Vera! Come on!
Watch, Careful, careful,
Okay,
Hey, I thought you said there are no roads to Sem Saida,
There was not,
They must have cut down a lot of trees to make this road,
- Let's go, - Okay,
Hold on a sec!
We don't have to cross over this,
Of course, Why?
You've crossed over this before?
Well, the old one, but it collapsed,
This is the new one, so step lightly,
This is the newer one?
Yeah, it's the newer one,
I think we should just stay back and wait for the others,
What is wrong?
You scared of heights or something?
No, I don't think so,
but there's no way we can cross this,
Do you want to find your father or not?
Yes,
Good, You first, Go ahead,
- Me? Why? - Yeah,
Because if I'm in the middle of the bridge
and we are in trouble, I'm not turning around for you,
What do you mean?
Okay, The bridge may have a little damage
for all the moisture coming off the bottom,
So what you do is you get on there,
You don't backtrack, Just go forward,
- Okay, - Yeah?
You stay behind me,
Of course, I stay behind you,
There you go,
Come on,
Less weight would be better,
I don't want to die on this thing, okay?
How much weight will it take?
No, it will be fine! Just go!
You must go!
Shit,
No, no, no, no!
On your knees, No, No, no, no, no!
We're not a threat!
We do not want to hurt your land!
She's no threat!
Get me off this bridge, Lebecq,
I'm trying,
Keep your head down and don't,,,
Mandy!
- Scott, stop! - Mandy!
No! No wait! No!
No, we're not a threat!
On your knees!
All right!
Okay,
What are they gonna do to us, Lebecq?
If we're lucky, they'll just kill us,
What?
Better hope that's all they do,
What?
Who are these guys and what do they want?
Scott, where did you find the jacket?
It's my dad's,
You got it back at the village where he was staying?
Yeah,
I lost mine when you took off on the boat without me,
Remember?
Yeah, because you were late,
Do you think maybe he left it there on purpose,
No?
Yellow is the color of the construction workers' vests,
Yeah, so what?
Construction workers brought the bulldozers,
Okay,
The bulldozers have soiled the land, Scott!
You are wearing the color of the enemy!
Well, I didn't know!
Way to go, Scott!
I didn't know!
They eat their enemies,
What? No, no, no!
Lebecq!
No, no, no, no! No, no!
Hey,
How long you guys been in here?
A long time,
What's the plan then?
There has to be a way out of this,
Can we outrun them?
No,
They know the jungle better than anyone,
Okay, So,,, So what do we do?
My team knows I'm out here,
I'm sure they'll send someone for us,
What?
The jungle,,, it's too big, too thick,
They could be standing right next to us,
We would not even know it,
I have a GPS on my phone, smart guy,
Yeah, And if your satellite worked,
we would all be saved, yeah?
Amanda, what are you doing?
Give it a rest, It's not gonna work,
What? And die out here? No thank you,
Amanda, stop,
There's someone coming,
- No, - No!
- Get behind me! - What's happening?
- Get behind me, - No!
Wait, wait, wait, no, no, no!
What's happening?
Lebecq!
No!
Let him go!
No, no, no, no!
No, Amanda!
Stop it!
No, Amanda!
Don't you touch me!
Well?
We're going to be killed as a sacrifice to Curupira,
No, no,,,
This is,,, we know now what has happened
to your father and the others,
If this is what happened to my father and the others,
What the hell? You serious right now?
Yes!
- Ask him! - Ask him what?
What happened to my father and the other workers!
Are you insane? I,,,
What do we have to lose?
- I'm not going to,,, - Do it!
Did you take restitution against another white man like this?
Lebecq! Lebecq!
Let him go!
Don't do it!
Lebecq!
Let him go!
Do you hear them?
They're saying it! They're saying the words!
Belipshí and maepe!
They're saying the words in my father's journal!
Sun and water!
What are you doing?
Shit, shit!
Run, run!
Could this be the heart of the jungle?
Scott?
Are you okay?
Scott?
Shut up,
Quiet,
The Amazon, it messes with you,
Yeah, I just wanna remind everyone
we are here to find my dad,
Find dad?
Our dad went missing in the Amazon,
Despite every single thing that has happened to us
trying to find him, you still think he's alive?
I know he is,
Amanda, we don't belong here,
I wanna go home,
The painting,,, the painting on that tree?
where the tribesmen were worshipping before
almost beheading Lebecq!
That's it!
That's the heart and they were chanting,
They were saying "belipshí and maepe and Curupira", right?
Right,
I heard that,
So what?
And then those spiders came out of nowhere!
Yeah, the spiders came,
The spiders came and they killed them, not us!
Okay, so much for worshipping the Curupira!
Okay, sucks for them, Game over, man,
The Curupira is protecting the heart,
They're looking for it,
Legends of a precious emerald pulsing
and beating in the Amazon, hence it's called
the heart of the jungle,
And the blind man, the guy that healed Lebecq's leg,
he said something about
the power of the Curupira being in the heart, right?
And if we destroy the heart, we destroy the demon,
Yes,
You think dad found the heart,
stole it, then hid it?
If your father or anyone else found the heart,
they would be long gone by now,
Word would spread very, very quickly,
The lucky finder would be a very unlucky moving target,
The garimpeiros, the drug smugglers,
the pirates, they would all want it,
A gem that size would earn a lot of money,
Then it's still here hidden,
Well, then we need to find it and destroy it,
And destroy that creature and we need to do it now,
Yes,
Mm-hm,
Okay,,, okay, we find it,
Where is it?
Exactly,
Where is it?
So we go home now?
We go home,
The words,
Belipshí and maepe and Curupira,
Maepe, maepe, maepe means water, right?
Lebecq, where's the nearest waterfall?
Are you serious?
Yes! Think about it,
The Curupira is the protector of the Amazon, right?
The trees, the jungle, the animals,
everything, life itself, right?
That's how the legend goes!
Right,
And what is the most basic function of all life?
- Water, - Exactly,
And on the Yanomami altar, there was three lines depicting what?
Water,,,
Water, Or a waterfall,
- Hell's Throat! - Hell's Throat!
How close is it?
If we go there, we will die!
Yeah,
And I'm finding dad,
And I'm going to destroy that goddamned heart,
Amanda, wait up,
I'm coming with you,
It's over there!
Look out there,,, waterfalls,
Between the waterfalls in the distant, there's a green glow,
Do you see it?
Sark, I,,, maybe,
Hey, hey, Scott?
I need you to promise me something,
What is it, Mandy?
With everything that's gone wrong today,
if we run out of luck,
I need you to promise me that you're gonna find dad,
You're gonna get him outta here and you're gonna get him home,
You're the reason we made it this far,
You,
I'll tell him that if you don't,
We both go in, we find dad,
We'll go home together,
Amanda?
Do you guys hear that?
Is that moaning?
I can't hear anything,
Scott, shut up!
Mandy, is that you?
Dad?
Oh, my God, that's dad! Dad!
Scott! Wait!
- No, no! - No, no, wait! Wait!
- But this,,,! - Let them go!
- Mandy? - Dad?
- Scott, wait! - Dad?
- Scott! - Dad!
- Wait! - What are you doing?
That might not be dad!
Of course it is, I can hear him,,,
She's right! It's just an echo,
The Curupira mimics sounds,
- That's what it does! - Scott!
The Curupira is a myth, okay? Dad's in there! He's real!
- Dad? - Scott, I am telling you,,,
Shut up, Vera!
- Dad! - Scott!
The heart!
The heart is inside!
I am not going in there!
We've fed them sufficient bait!
They're occupied!
No, listen!
We go in and we take what's ours,
We take what's ours!
We take the heart of the jungle!
Scott?
- Scott, stop, okay? - Dad?
Scott, listen to me, Listen to your sister,
That voice you are hearing is not your dad,
I heard the same thing back in the jungle,
I thought it was you, but it's,,,
Why can't you believe me, okay? That's Dad in there,
I can hear him! Dad!
Guys, where's Sark and Lebecq?
We have to go!
Scott, this is a trap,
Come on,
Give them back to me!
Oh, God!
Scott!
Scot, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!
I thought I lost you!
Vera! Vera!
Vera!
Is she breathing?
She's alive!
Vera!
Oh, my God, Vera!
Oh, my God,
Mandy,,,
Yeah?
Look,
It's the heart of the jungle,
Wait, Wait, wait, wait,
Do you hear that?
No, I don't hear anything,
Yeah, exactly,
Where's the waterfall?
Jesus!
Lebecq!
Oh my God,
Where's Sark?
Amanda! Scott!
Get away from here!
Shh!
Someone's alive!
I can hear it, I can hear it!
Sark?
- No, it's over there, - Please,,,
Oh, my God, Oh, my God, that's dad!
- Dad! - Dad!
Dad!
- Dad! - We're coming!
- Dad! - Stay with us!
Dad! Dad!
- Stay with us! - Dad!
Dad!
- Whoa, - Shit!
Dad, we're gonna get you outta here!
He's alive!
You and Scott need to save yourselves,
No!
- We're gonna get you outta here, - Please,,,
No, we're not leaving without you!
These vines are alive, they're tightening,
They're going to kill him!
- Here, - No,
Yes!
Dad!
Oh, God,
Hold on!
No, wait, wait, wait! Scott, stop!
We have to cut him down!
No! It will crush him!
The harder we try, the tighter the vines get!
- Oh, God, - Dad,
The heart,,,
What? What?
- The heart! - What?
What's he saying?
The heart,
The heart, the heart!
Where's Vera? Vera! Vera!
She's got the heart,
Vera! Vera!
She has it,
What?
Oh, the Curupira!
Hey!
Vera!
Smash it!
Dad! Dad!
Dad?
- Dad? - Dad!
Dad?
What's happening?
It's getting bigger!
Why isn't it dying?
It's been released,
What?
Curupira,,, it's been released,
Scott, what are you doing?
No, no, no,
Come on,
We won't need that,
What?
Protect the Amazon,
If we can do something with the gem shards,
then we can tame the beast,
Help me arrange these,
Keep your eyes closed,
Okay,
Don't look up under any circumstances, all right?
Okay,
- Dad? - Yeah?
What is this creature?
The Curupira is kind of a spiritual protector,
When they started to deforest this jungle,
we tried to hold it back,
So by destroying the heart,
the Curupira is no longer its prisoner,
Exactly,
Hey, wait!
Vera! Vera,
- No! - Don't go that way,
- Vera! - Vera!
- Vera, no! - Don't go!
- Vera! - No!
Wait,,,
Wait, it's,,, it's gone,
- It's okay, it's okay! - Oh my God,
So what happens now?
What happens now?
You know what I think?
We start learning how to respect this land,
Let's get home,
Yeah, let's go home,
You guys did all right out here, you know?
Amanda kept dragging us down, but we made it through,
