Woodland Spirit

Directed by David Herrera

With Adriana Samboni and Ofelia Samboni

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.
