Escucha El Río

Somewhere in the Amazon jungle, Neco, a 12-year-old boy, sets off to hunt spider monkeys with his father. After several days of walking, as they’re near their destination, Neco’s father mysteriously disappears. Left to fend by himself for the first time, Neco must draw upon his father’s teachings and learn to listen to the jungle, a living force that can either help or devour him.
