♪ Amancaya, Amancaya ♪

♪ This place is
freaking creaky ♪

♪ Amancaya, Amancaya ♪

- This place is really weird.

- God created the earth,

but the earth had no base

so under the earth
he made an angel,

but the angel had no base.

Under the angel's feet
he made a crag of ruby.

The crag had no base.

Under the crag he
made a bull endowed

with 4,000 eyes, ears, mouths,
tongues, nostrils, and feet.

But the bull had no base,

and so under the bull, he
made a fish named Bahamut.

So immense and
dazzling is Bahamut

that the eyes of man
cannot bear its sight.

The tail goes on that
beneath the measureless fish

is a fathomless, and sea
beneath the sea an abyss of air,

and beneath the air lay fire,

and beneath the fire
are the six hells.

- Oh, oh, shit!

Amir!

- Whoa,
whoa, what is this?

Hey.

- There's somebody out there?

- What the hell's that going on?

Babe, I don't see anybody.

- What are you doing?

We weren't properly
introduced this morning.

My name is Amaru.

I'm a Amancaya's brother.

I run operations
for the foundation.

- That's right.

No, no, no, Amancaya
mentioned you.

- This is my, uh-
- Yeah.

I know.

Pleasure meeting you.

- Your, your English is good.

- The one thing I do better
than my sister.

Oh, this is a Americo,
one of the locals here.

There's this
transnational company

that, that found
gas in this area,

and we've been
trying to organize

the, the, the
community to stop it.

- Well, we
saw you earlier.

I'm terribly sorry.
- Are you busy?

- We're just
about to have dinner.

- Eat later, I wanna
show you something.

I think you'll like it.

So this is a traditional
celebration to welcome the rain,

the fertility, and
good fortune, right?

You know, 'cause we've
had a harsh year.

- Sure.

- Oh.

This, this is singani.

Man, you ready to try some
good shit from Bolivia?

- Oh yeah.
- This is gonna be so fun.

All right, it's
gonna be all for you.

- Sweet.

- There you go.

- Oh, let's, please.

Did I say something wrong?

- No, I'm sorry about him.

You know, locals right now
are very wary of foreigners.

We have a bad history
of people and companies

coming and trying to take
advantage of our resources.

You know, take advantage
of our property.

That's why Pachamama
defends itself.

And you always offer
something to Pachamama.

if you wanna take
something back.

But if Pachamama gets
angry she likes blood.

I'm kidding.

No, man, go ahead.

Sit, sit, sit, sit,
sit, sit, sit, sit.

I'll get you something
real special.

- Okay.

- Yo-hoo, hey!

Amancaya is here.

- Hey.

- Cheers.

- Oh, right.
- Right.

- Amancaya.

- No, no.

- You got it.

- Amancaya, Amancaya.

Amancaya.

- You all right?

- No, I,

I had this dream, it was,

this woman in the kitchen
and there was this bull.

I, uh,

I haven't been honest with you.

Uh,

I, um, I used to
have these dreams,

um, these vivid dreams.

Uh, because, um,

when I was a kid, my, my mom
shot herself in the kitchen

and, uh, um, my dad
blamed me for it.

He said, "I could
have done something."

And I was just a kid.

I was just standing there.

I, I thought that the
dreams had stopped.

I, I thought I'd gotten past it.

And then I met you and I
thought you would think

that I was crazy or
that I was damaged

if I told you any of
this, and so I didn't.

And things were going great.

And then now of a sudden I'm
having these dreams again.

I'm scared of losing you

'cause I, I, I, hell I
don't wanna be alone,

and I, I don't wanna disappear.

Please don't leave me.

- It's okay, babe.

It's probably just the
alcohol and the jet lag.

- Probably just the
alcohol and the jet lag.

- You know,
this can't be a reality

right now, right?

- Amat?

Buenos dias.

There you are.

Been looking all over for you.

That guy with the bull
is in the courtyard.

You see him?

That guy gives me the creeps.

- There's things
to do places, to go.

- The water factory.

- Hell, yeah, let's go.

- He's gonna be leading
the way with his machete.

But he's always with his
machete so be careful.

- Marco.

- Just playing with you
guys, he's the best.

- Sweet.

- This is great, huh?
- He's amazing.

- And it's just the start of it.

You know, this trail was
actually built for schools.

- Wow.
- Because with how much

knowledge they can get of, of
this native forest, you know?

- Wow.

- You'll see.

- I think I wore
the wrong outfit.

- Amaru, how high up are we?

- Um, we're around 7,300
feet above sea level.

- Wow.
- Yeah.

Oh, this is the most
important thing.

This is the purest
water you'll ever see

because it comes from
inside the mountain.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- Wow.

Oh, my god.

- You can actually drink it.
- Really?

- Yeah, you should try it.

- I'm good.

- Mm, that's good.
- Yeah.

- How is it?
- Not bad, not bad.

- All right, now we're gonna
really dig into the forest

and see some native stuff,

which is gonna be
great and excellent.

- Gosh

Babe.
- Huh?

- What are you doing?

- Jumping in.

- You know how cold this is?

- Come on.

This is the most important
part of the tour.

Get in.

- You're gonna catch a cold.

- Time to get in.

- You're crazy.

- Come on.

It's warm.

- Yeah.

Believe when I see it.

You're a mad man.

- One thing that many
people don't know

is that birds have a very
important role in the forest.

For example, they eat the seeds

from the two most important
trees of this forest,

which is the guayabo
and the pino del cerro.

And if you realize
they're everywhere,

guayabo, pino del cerro,
guayabo, pino del cerro.

- Wow.

- What does birds do?

They eat the seeds.

So in their stomach,
they mix together.

And when they're flying
around, they defecate,

and that seed from that
seed, it grows two trees,

but with one root.

I call it the
magical bird effect.

- So it's a poop forest.

Cool.

- Oh, there's another
guayabo and pino del cerro.

You know, the root-
- All right.

- Has a specific function,

which is, imagine you
have a, an empty glass

with a sponge inside.

- Sure.

- When you pour water,
this sponge absorbs it all.

- Right.
- And now imagine

this water is rain.

When there's no more rain,

this sponge starts releasing it

to all the aquifers
of the world.

- Gotcha.
- That's why we have a water

all year long, you know?

Oh, this is a perfect
example of symbiosis.

Two trees growing
and working together.

One has what the other one
doesn't and vice versa.

It's, it's like they, they
cannot live without each other.

They need each other to exist.

- Like yin and yang.
- Yeah.

This foundation was, was
born as an initiative

to protect the forest.
- Sure.

- And then we started a
specialized greenhouse

to grow and reproduce
the local seedlings

that were lost to
this tragic fire

that we had in 2017 here.

- Right, right.

- And for instance,

there's guayabos all
over the place here.

There's, there's some
pino del cerro there.

- Oh, may I?

- Sure, sure.

And you know, this fire
consumed 13,000 acres.

So this fire consumed
13,000 acres.

Took the life of
hundreds of animals.

And three people.

Took the life of
hundreds of animals

and three people,
including my mom.

- I'm so
sorry to hear that.

She's beautiful.

- She was the main activist,
the brains of this foundation.

She was my hero.

And Amancaya's too.

She was my hero
and Amancaya's too.

- Where is Amancaya?

- She was always busy.

Sometimes she does so much

it seems like there
are two of her.

Sometimes she does so much

it seems like there
are two of her.

- Wow.

- So this
is where all the water

that he has produced.

It's mind blowing.

So trees have two
main functions.

You know, the first
one is this sponge

that I told you that
retains the water,

and then it releases it
when there's a drought.

- Right.
- And the second one is,

is being the cycle that
generates water and rain.

You know, that generates forest,

the forest generates
the evapotranspiration,

the evapotranspiration
generates water, you know.

We're sure there's
a confirmed theory

that this clouds are rivers.

They're just rivers
above us, you know?

And that's this, this
is what we call the,

the horizontal rain.

And that's why the world
keeps getting water.

And that's why we wanna show
that this is a water factory.

You know, without this little
thing I'm talking about,

the world will run outta
water and we're all gonna die.

- And these are the
guaybo and pinos, no?

- Si, you got it.

I honestly think the
fire was not an accident.

- What makes you say that?

- Well, foreigners,
greedy corporations,

they just come and start
burning everything.

Don't care if there are animals.

Don't care if there are insects,

they don't care if there's life.

For instance the guayabo
and pino del cerro

are not good for wood.

So the easiest way
to get rid of them

is to start burning them,

and planting trees that
gives them business.

It becomes a business.

- Now how long did it
take to put the fire out/

- Weeks.

- Babe, let's go.

What you working on, babe?

- A story.

- A story?
- Uh-huh.

- Hmm.

I thought I was the writer
and you were the pretty one.

- Oh.

Can we not both be writers?

You see me as competition?

Think I might be too good.

- You couldn't possibly.

- You have no idea.

- Oh yeah?
- Mm-hmm.

- What's it about?

- It's about a woman who
shoots a bull in the face.

- That did happen.

- Ah, that it did.

- Bring your wine.

I'll be right back.

- Baby, what are you doing?

- I'm gonna get a condom,
I'm gonna get a condom.

- Condom?
- Yeah.

- Babe, it's me.

- I know it's you.

We haven't met
together for a while.

- Don't trust me?

- It's just a condom.

It's just a condom.

- Hey.

You actually brought
condoms, I can't.

- Amro?

- Watching me sleep?

- You're handsome
when you sleep.

- How long you been up?

- You know me,
I'm a early riser.

- Hmm, I can see that.

- I could get used to this.

- Me too.

- Mind if I take a
bath in your tub?

- It's our tub, remember?

Hurry back.
- I will.

- Hey, there you are.

- If you wanna fuck other guys,

at least have the decency to
throw the condom wrappers away

before you have me over.

- What?

- I mean, I know we're
not a thing or whatever,

but I, I just.
- Babe,

those are from last night.

- I don't care who
you fuck honestly,

just don't flaunt this
fucking shit in my face, okay?

- Those are the condoms
that we used last night.

- Stop it, Amir.

- You brought the condoms.

- I don't wanna have this
conversation right now, okay?

I, I'm gonna go out.

- What?

- I'll be back later on.

I don't know.

- Where are you going?

Hello?

- Hello, Amir?

- Yeah, this is him.

Amancaya?

This is so strange.

No, I, I just, I had a
dream about you last night.

- Wow.

Are you okay?

- Yeah, no, I'm, I'm fine.

How are you?

It's been ages.

- How are you?

- I'm okay.

Better.

I'm still here in
upstate New York writing,

you know, doing my thing.

Really?

No, that sounds great.

Of course.

I'd love to see you.
- Si.

- Bahamut's fame reached
the wastes of Arabia

where men altered and
magnified its image.

From a hippopotamus or elephant

they turned it
into a fish afloat

in a fathomless sea.

On the fish they placed the bull

and on the bull a ruby mountain,

and on the mountain an angel.

And over the angel six hells,

and over these hells the earth,

and over the earth
seven heavens.

Hi.

Never believe what
happened today.

Got some really good news.

- Good for you.

- Don't you at least
want to hear about it?

- Sure.

- Okay, listen, so
my friend Amancaya

calls me today from Bolivia.

Okay, she runs an
environmental foundation

in the rainforest, the
Bolivia rainforest.

- She calls all the time.

- What?

- No, I haven't heard
from Amancaya in years.

What are you talking about?

What's your problem?

- Nothing.

- This is an opportunity
of a lifetime

and you're acting like
you don't even care.

- I care.

- I was gonna invite you.

- Look, I, I honestly don't
know what you're talking about.

And I just wanna have a glass
of wine and go to bed, okay?

- Fine.

Have your wine.

- What the fuck?

Who the fuck are you?

Get the fuck out of my bed!

- Whoa.
- Get the fuck out!

- Amat.
- Listen, get the fuck out!

- Hey, hey!
- Who the fuck are you?

Get out of this house.

I'm gonna call the cops.

- What are you talking about?

- Get out!

Who, who are you?

- Babe.
- Get out!

- Amat.
- What the fuck?

Get out.

- Amat!

- How do you know my name?

Seriously get out.

I'm calling the cops on you.

- Babe!
- What?

Get out, get out!

- Babe.

Babe.

Hey, Amat, open the door.

Babe, come on, open up on.

Amat, if you don't
open up right now,

I'm gonna break down the door.

You're handsome when you sleep.

It's all right.

It's okay.

Shh, it's okay.

It's okay.

Amat.

Amat.

Amat, it's me!

Amat.

Amat.

Amat.

Babe.

Amat.

Babe.

Where are you going?

Amat.

- Amancaya.

Amancaya, Amancaya, Amancaya.

- We're sorry,

your call cannot be
completed as dialed.

Please check the
number and dial again.

- Babe,
what are you doing?

- Jumping in.

- You know
how cold this is?

- What?

This is the most important
part of the tour.

Get in.

- Amaru, listen to me.

I need your help.

Amat is in the forest.

He's lost.

He's lost.

Amat.

He's in the forest.

- Who, who you looking?

Who you looking?

- Amat.

My boyfriend.

- Ah.
- What?

Amancaya, where is Amancaya?

- Is he here?

- Excuse me.

- I need to come in.

- Who are you?

- Listen, I really
need to come in.

- Who the hell are you?

- He should
have told you.

He needs to tell you himself.

- How do you know him?

- He called me last night.

He said they were coming and I
know exactly what that means.

I really need to come in, okay?

- You're, uh, you're?

- Oh shit.

- Come in, there's a
bathroom down the hall.

- Yeah, I know the
way, I've been here many times.

- How do you know Amat?

- He will tell
you he comes back.

I promise.

- What does that even mean?

- Any minute now.

- Oh, my god, Amat.

Babe, where you been?

Amat, talk to me.

What happened to you?

Please.

- Amir.

- What's going on?

What is this?

- I need a moment with him.

Please.

I need you to step out
for an hour and come back.

Okay?

- What is she talking about?

- Amir, listen.

- What is she talking about?

- Do this for him, hmm?

- You want me to
leave my own home?

- It's gonna be fine.

Come in, have a seat.

Go ahead.

- When I told you, I hadn't
been honest with you, uh,

I had told you a bit
of what had happened,

but not all of it.

And um, I, I thought

that I could show you
or tell you, but, um.

- Can I talk on your behalf?

You were diagnosed
with schizophrenia

when you were 21-years-old.

This is part of
your family history.

You've been in and out of
therapy for many years.

I've been your
therapist for a while.

Recently you stopped
taking your medication.

- It's 'cause, 'cause we met

and I, I thought I
was getting better.

I thought, uh, I don't
know I thought I-

- And you start
drinking alcohol.

- We were going out.

We, we were having fun.

I don't know, I thought
I'd move past it.

I thought I was getting better.

I don't know.

And then all of a sudden
these nightmares started

and I started acting out,

and I feel like I'm
ruining this for us.

- How can I help?

- Right now, if you really love
him, you have to let him go.

- There's the clinic
I need to go to.

Just to get better.

- No.

No, no.

I'll make you better.

I can make you
better, all right?

He can't, no, nobody
knows him, but me.

He needs me.

Doesn't need a clinic.

I can help you.

I'm going to help.

Trust me.

I love you.

I love you.

I love him.

- I know.

I know, but this
needs to happen.

- Okay.

Okay.

- Okay?

That's it?

- What?

- Are you just
gonna throw me away?

Huh?

You're just gonna like,
I'm, I'm an imperfection

in your perfect fucking life.

Is that what it is, huh?

What all of a sudden, you're
just gonna throw me aside

and, and make me disappear

just because this person
comes into our home

and, and says, that I
have a fucking problem?

Huh?

What, what you just take the
easy fucking road all the time?

- No.
- All the time.

That's what you do.

That is your thing.

Take the easy road.

You know what?

Go fuck yourself both of you.

Take your fucking notebook
and get the fuck out.

- Stay with me.

Amir.

You know, this can be a
reality right now, right?

- Yeah.

- Please don't do this.

- This is for your best.

I'm very proud of you.

I'll be in touch.

- I speak English.

Amro.

- Hi.
- Hi, nice to meet you.

What brings you to Bolivia?

- I'm a journalist.

- Wanna get out of this place?

Come on, come on.

- Are you okay?

Are you okay?

- Hey.

- Sorry, this,
this was a mistake.

- We didn't do anything.

- Excuse me, can I help you?

- Sorry, I lost my keys.

My wallet.

- Is everything okay?

- I just don't know where I am.

Babe, what are you doing?

You know how cold this water is?

You're gonna catch a cold.

Time to get in.

Whoo.

Come on, it's warm.

Ah.

So immense and
dazzling is Bahamut

that the eyes of man
cannot bear its sight.

On the 496th night of
the Arabian nights,

we are told that it was given
to Isa to behold Bahamut,

and that this mercy granted Isa

fell to the ground in a faint,

and three days and
three nights passed

before he recovered his senses.

The tale goes on that
beneath the measureless fish

is a fathomless sea and beneath
the sea and abyss of air

and beneath the air lay fire.

What?

What's going on?

Please.

Just put that down.

Amancaya, put the gun down.

I don't understand.

Amancaya.

Don't!

- You said you never leave me.

- I come here every week.

He's not answering.

- Yeah, we've been
here before, ma'am.

- Sir, sir,
can you hear me?

Huh?

Have you taken anything?
- Is he taken any meds?

- Yeah, yeah, he's a Benadryl.

- Stay with me, okay?

Sir, can you hear me?

Stay with me.

Stay with me.

We're gonna get you
some help, okay?

We're gonna move you now, okay?

- Si.

- Amancaya, Amancaya.

Amancaya.

Amancaya, Amancaya.

Amancaya.

Amancaya, Amancaya.

Amancaya.
