"If the shamans stop dancing and life in the rainforest loses its balance, the sky will fall and crush everything beneath it. This wisdom is handed down in the Brazilian Amazon by each generation of Yanomami. But the gold miners are polluting the rivers, the shamans are dying, the rainforest is perishing and the earth is heating up. Davi Kopenawa, shaman, chief and well-known spokesman for the Yanomami, has been fighting these threats for over 40 years.
Time and again, he has travelled the world to defend his people against endless colonisation. Do the whites understand that the fall of the sky will not only crush the Yanomami?
