Giancarlo's Recommendation

Bruce Parry popularized anthropology with his BBC series “Tribes”. The concept of the tv show was simple: he would live with tribes all around the world for one month. For his documentary Tawai, Bruce decided to explore the possibility that humans lost their connection with nature when they had to settle. He uses the split brain theory by Psychiatrist Ian McGilchrist.

Using Western scientific analysis, Eastern spiritual enquiry and ancient tribal wisdom, our host Bruce Parry (of BBC Tribe fame) will take us on a sensational, thought-provoking journey to question our deeper selves… Tawai explores how shaped we have become by culture and that learning to reevaluate our thoughts, actions, feelings and beliefs might lead to an increased wellness within our individual and collective lives, as well as our relationship with the planet.

Synopsis

"They loved that I put a bone through my nose. They loved that I had my penis pushed back inside me"
