Heart of the Amazon Leg 8

Leg 8 — SBRB → SBCZ

Mission: Deliver photographers and filmmakers documenting life in remote Amazon communities.**

📖 People of the River

Not all Amazon stories belong to wildlife. Millions of people call the rainforest home. Villages scattered along rivers maintain traditions passed down through generations while adapting to an increasingly connected world. The documentary team onboard hopes to capture these stories before modernization changes them forever. As the aircraft follows winding waterways toward Cruzeiro do Sul, the researchers are reminded that the Amazon is not an empty wilderness. It is a homeland, a workplace, a source of food, and a way of life for countless communities.
