Filming Secrets

Abstract

It can be argued that one of the most recurring themes in film, literature, and journalism is the Amazon. However, the Brazilian cinematography still had not had a film that brought to light questions on the “rubber boom” within the world’s geopolitical trade. The film Secrets from Putumayo is an opportunity for a wider audience to get to know this relevant historical figure and this episode of the Brazilian, Colombian and Peruvian Amazon.
