A remnant population of the Tairona civilization survived the Spanish genocide high in the coastal mountains of Columbia. As our elder brothers, they know more about how to live properly on this planet in a complex society than, by all the evidence in front of their faces, we Younger Brothers, and they are willing to share if we will listen.
Imagine a pyramid standing alone by the sea. Each side a hundred miles long. It’s a mountain, nearly four miles high. In its folds, imagine every different climate on earth. This is the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. The people hidden here call the Sierra the Heart of the World. And themselves the Elder Brothers.
A Kogi teacher explained, "The Great Mother created the world in water. She makes the future in it. This is how she speaks to us. We look after nature. We are the mámas and do this here. And we mámas see that you are killing it by what you do. We can no longer repair the world. You must. You are uprooting the earth. And we are divining to discover how to teach you to stop."
Santa Marta, on the Caribbean cost of Columbia, sits at the mountain's foot. It was founded by the Spanish in 1525. It became a great center of smuggling and contraband. A few years ago it was the heart of the marijuana trade. In recent years it has been a base for shipping cocaine to Miami. You can hire an assassin in Santa Marta for $100. Every sunrise reveals another murder. Like any city, Santa Marta is out to make money. Santa Marta would like to be Los Angeles or Miami, it belongs to our world.
Once there were Indians here who dressed in gold. They had orchards, fields and cities. The Tairona civilization vanished, like all Indian civilizations in South America, but it did not die. Four hundred years ago they withdrew for safety into the Heart of the World. The children of the Taironas still have their cities, their roads, their orchards, and from the hidden folds of the mountain they have watched our civilization in silence, but now the descendants of the Taironas have summoned us. This film is their first message for centuries.
