"Keep the River on Your Right: A modern cannibalism tale." An adventurous

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Manhattan-based artist with a strong interest in anthropology travels to Peru where he hears of a Catholic mission far into the Amazon jungle. He travels there and, after hearing of a primitive tribe further away, seeks them out and joins them. Murder and cannibalism ensue and lead him to give up a lifetime (he is middle-aged at the time) of painting and to travel to New Guinea to once again establish contact with a primitive tribe, this time living with them for years.
In the documentary, Tobias Schneebaum, now in his late 70s, travels back to those two areas to try and reestablish contact with the tribesmen that had accepted him amongst themselves.
This is a truly fascinating look not only into the lives of what "early Man's" existence must have been like, but also a riveting character study of an eccentric and charismatic adventurer.
Very highly recommended.
