a different village from that
of the Indians.

:14:06
For the 'tree with nests',
:14:10
we used the materials provided
by the place,

:14:15
but we also got carried away
by our imagination.

:14:17
I venture off the beaten track,
but that was intentional.

:14:22
I think it's the most vivid image
:14:24
from a scenographic point of view...
:14:29
The younths shot in 16 mm.
:14:32
But as we wanted to contrast
:14:35
the first and the second part
of the movie,

:14:39
which is the discovery
:14:42
of the pieces of film they shot,
:14:47
we shot the first part in 35 mm
:14:52
and the second one in 16 mm
to emphasize

:14:56
this photographical contrast.
:15:02
It was physically difficult,
because of the heat, the tiredness.

:15:07
In Leticia,
:15:12
there was no electricity,
except this oil generator

:15:16
which brought us light in the evening.
:15:21
Recently I did a movie in the jungle,
:15:25
approximately in the same region,
:15:29
and now that I'm older,
:15:33
and more indisposed by discomfort,
I realized

:15:38
that being in Amazonia is dangerous.
Everything is dangerous:

:15:41
the insects,
:15:42
the things we don't know about...
The country isn't fully explored yet.

:15:47
There are animals like snakes
:15:50
piranhas. Everything is a menace.
:15:55
Cinema is always done in total
irresponsability.

:15:59
Especially by us, Italian people,
who are very enthiusiastic.
