Adventures and danger in the Amazon
"800 Leagues Down the Amazon" is an adventure film following Joao Garral, a man haunted by his past, as he secretly travels through the Amazon to attend his daughter’s wedding. Along the treacherous journey down the river, the Garral family encounters a series of challenges.
The film was shot in stunning Peruvian locations, including the Amazon River and Iquitos. These areas, rich in lush vegetation, enhance the film’s setting with their natural beauty. Iquitos plays a key role, not only for its proximity to the Amazon but also for its access to unique landscapes. The vibrant Peruvian rainforest provides the perfect backdrop for the story’s adventurous and immersive atmosphere.
