At Play in the Fields of the Lord (1991) is a critical movie about modern missionary in the amazonas area. Material greed, religious fanatism, ignorance, cultural barriers, lost identity, and finally the personal relationships between the characters involved, create (imho) a very sensitvely and well done drama, which tells the inevitably sad story of the real victims of western aberration - the indigenous people of South America.

If you haven't watched it yet, I recommend you to do so. And I'd appreciate a comment on how you liked it here in ethnolog. Don't be irritaded by the sensationalistic cover.

thanks to Robert for pointing me to this movie
