| Opplysninger | Based on a true story, The Emerald Forest feautures Powers Boothe as Bill Markham, an American engineer working on a dam project in the Brazilian jungle. When a local tribe known as "The Invisible People" abducts his infant son, Markham begins a ten-year search to find him, only to discover that his boy has grown into a fully-fledged tribesman. Can Markham persuade him to return to civilisation? Returning to some of the themes that informed Deliverance, most notable the battle between man and nature and capitalist greed, visionary director Boorman also fashions a pulsating adventure yarn that makes the most of its verdant locations. Beautifully shot by the veteran Philippe Rousselot, the film is acted with conviction by Boothe and a cast of indigenous Indians, whose subtitled dialect furters the film's authenticity. - Kun engelsk språk, ikke norske undertekster
