Synopsis

French Guyana, not so long ago.

Eliott, a young and naïve anthropology researcher, goes on an expedition to study the Otopis, a mysterious tribe from the Amazon rainforest. It is also an opportunity for him to get away from the grip of his possessive mother, Chantal de Bellabre; an ethnologist hated by the profession for her biased and cold-hearted practices.

Arriving in the forest Elliot realizes the Otopis are not the good savages he had imagined. Alcoholic, violent, crooked: they will turn his expedition into a real hell in the jungle. Fortunately, Chantal, consumed by remorse and worried about her son, decides to abandon her own expedition and goes looking for him in the jungle, with the help of the not so helpful Lieutenant-Commander Raspailles and his men.
