Summary An hypnotic epic of megalomania and delusional myths; the story concerns the search of 16th century Spanish conquistadors for El Dorado amidst or beyond the jungles of the Amazon. While based on a fragment of history - 15 lines of text from a journal kept by a monk on the expedition - its subject is myth and a journey in the realm of hallucination which ends adrift in the Amazon, the leader proclaiming himself 'the wrath of God'. English version also available on 16mm film.
