A long time ago, before there were rivers in the Amazon rainforest, a Kukama God stood poised in his canoe, holding aloft his bow and arrows. The arrows fell one by one creating vast, winding rivers, which the Kukama people have navigated until modern times. Peruvian artists created more than 2,000 paintings to bring this ancient legend to life. (Guadalajara International Film Festival)
