The cinematography is beautiful! The overview of Kogi spirituality is spot on. There were a few things that could use elaboration though. The Kogi are not the sole descendants of the Tayrona, there are four tribes in the Sierra Nevada descended from the Tayrona: Kogi, Arhuacos, Wiwa, and Cancuamo. The name for the sacred gourd, poporo, is the name given by the Spanish. Each tribe has a name in its own language for the sacred gourd. All coffee originated in Africa and Central Asia. If the elder used to see coffee in the past of the jungle, it was from a cultivated crop. Some Kogi and other tribes in the region also grow coffee trees to produce coffee as one means of participating economically in the wider world. Their coffee is wild-grown by hand.
anyone else come to see footage of the priests leaving the cave they were raised in since birth till age 9 being only told of the outside and then they come outside and are blown away, id love to see that moment
