Amazon

Bruce Parry begins an epic adventure in the Amazon, following the river from source to sea. The first part of his journey takes him from the source in the High Andes through Peru's dangerous cocaine-producing valleys to visit the Ashaninka tribe.

Bruce Parry travels through the jungles of Peru to visit the Achuar people, a remote tribe who are fighting to keep oil companies off their land. He undergoes a profound shamanic ritual in an effort to find his vision.

In a remote part of the Brazilian Amazon, Bruce explores what happens when the outside world makes contact with isolated tribes.

Bruce Parry reaches the halfway point of his epic journey in the vast nature reserve of Mamiraua, home to the Amazon's most iconic species. He lives with the Ribeirinho, the river people, and hunts for the Amazon's biggest fish, the Pirarucu. Bruce joins a scouting trip where he discovers a caiman; a crocodile-like, critically endangered creature which is controversially being used as bait.
