Antropofest is an international festival of movies with social anthropological themes.

The goal of the festival is to introduce the general audience to the movies that could also be one of the important study instruments of our domain.

“Afluentes” are small rivers or streams that flow towards a bigger river or lake which, in this case, symbolize Ayahuasca. An ancient psychedelic brew that changes peoples’ perception and brought together, in this film, a teacher, a traveller and a desperate man to the same place. This documentary focuses on the increase of spiritual tourists in the Peruvian amazon, modern shamanism and the healing potentials of traditional plant medicine.
