In an indigenous village of the Amazon, far away from civilization, a group of Indigenous boys and girls of the tribe undergo a test to prove that they are ready to become adults: as a prize they will be awarded a feather piece / mask representing the animal‐totem that will guide them as adults. A group of hi-tech poachers attack the place during the celebration, stealing the totem-piece that represents the great black jaguar. The 2 boys & 2 girls take on the journey to rescue the sacred mask and to save the multiple animals kidnapped. They will have to learn to work as a team, to respect nature and that Any Form of Life is Sacred. An adventure full of magic and music in a clash of Nature vs technology in the incredible Amazon rain forest. After all the word AMAZING comes from the Amazon.
