The Shaman & the Scientist is a 2017 short documentary exploring the potential of the indigenous plant medicine traditions kept by Amazonian shamans. It features Don Juan Tangoa Paima –an ayahuasquero who uses the sacred vine and other ‘plant doctors’ to heal various illnesses– and Dr. Dennis McKenna, an American ethnobotanist and possibly one of the biggest authorities in the chemical and medicinal properties of Ayahuasca.
