Indigenous children from Ecuador's Amazon region weave their magical world into a radio drama for city dwellers, a fascinating testimony of a different worldview. The symphony of jungle sounds -frogs, crickets, birds and rain- mixes with the children's chants and shamans. The adventure of the overcoming of the tiger that wants to eat the world of the creation of the mountains and the rainbow can be lived acoustically.
The parents, the children and the father tell stories of the hunt and the spirits. The deceased grandmother comes back as a deer with big horns and the children advise you, how to protect yourself from bad dreams.
The acoustic translation into German and English was made by enthusiastic bilingual children, who live in Ecuador.
"The children of the jungle" we recorded in El Eden, a Quichua village on the banks of the Napo River between Coca and Rocafuerte in Ecuador. The village is isolated and located in one of the few regions that exist in the primary jungle of the Amazon.

The Quichuas there live from fishing, hunting and gathering, and also have small plantations of yucca, rice and fruits.
The world of the last remaining jungle peoples is endangered by the exploitation of timber and the search for and drilling of oil.
