About

An Indigenous woman, a defender of traditional medicine, insists that Yagé, a plant with hallucinogenic effects, is trying to deliver a message that will change the course of her life.

Adriana, a woman of Indigenous heritage and an advocate for ancestral medicine, believes that Yagé, the sacred plant, is trying to deliver a message that could transform her life. As she reconnects with her roots, she begins to ask: How can ancestral knowledge survive in a world that’s always changing? What does it mean to belong, to remember, to heal? In seeking these answers, she’s forced to confront her identity and redefine her purpose. What she discovers may reshape not only her own path, but the future of Indigenous legacy in the modern world.
