Set in Brazil, John Boorman’s The Emerald Forest is the search of one man for his kidnapped seven year old son taken by a tribe of Amazon Indians. Ten years later, he finally locates his son and discovers that the boy’s way of life is far superior to his own and that the dam he is working on will destroy the tribe’s way of life.
