Xingu was hit and miss for me. Sometimes believable at other times drifting away. Beautifully filmed with kudos to the native actors.

Beautiful and poignant and relevant story for the necessity of human beings to learn how to communicate without arms.
Sensational testament to the work of three Brazilians whose lives and work led to the creation of Brazil's first National Park. To this day, Xingú, whose sole purpose was safeguard the ancestral way of life of Native Brazilians, remains the largest Indian Reservation in Brazil.
Excellent film... give back to the indians what was theirs in the first place. R.M.
