:07:03
After shooting the film,
when they take it to Europe...
:07:07
it could show how the Aguarunas
and Huambisas were exploited and killed...
:07:12
during the time of the caucho.
:07:18
It could give that impression.
:07:22
We don't like that.
:07:25
That's why we reject it.
:07:28
Not everyone supports the Aguaruna council.
:07:31
Although Herzog
is only paying 3.50 a day...
:07:34
it's twice the going wage
for Indian labor.
:07:37
- Nelson is one of
the Aguaruna leaders...
:07:40
who think the Indians should continue working
for Herzog and his producer, Walter Saxer.
:07:45
The tribal council has put out a warrant
for his arrest, charging him with treason.
:07:49
Death threats are being made
against him and the film company.
:07:52
Nelson's mother is frightened.
:08:03
- What's she saying?
- She says...
:08:05
that you who work
for the company...
:08:09
are at fault for what
has happened to Nelson...
:08:13
because you want
to take him with you.
:08:17
She doesn't want Nelson to go.
:08:19
We support Nelson. It's an unjust thing...
:08:22
and she shouldn't worry.
:08:24
We'll do all we can to clear up
this situation once and for all.
:08:28
Nelson can't be guilty.
It's just not his fault.
:08:32
We'll continue to protect your son.
:08:38
The rumors
the Aguaruna spread who were against us...
:08:42
uh, for example,
said that we would cut -
:08:45
we would dig a canal
between the two river systems -
:08:47
between Rio Marañón
and further up between, uh...
:08:50
Rio Cenepa and leave the community
of Waiwaim as an island...
:08:55
which would dry out.
:08:57
And they spread rumors we -
we would, uh...
:08:59
slaughter them and take the grease
out of their bodies and cook the grease...
