Summary:The young and adventurous Norwegian backpacker Audun Amundsen is driven by his search for a utopian world and ends up in the wild jungle of Indonesia. Here he meets the shaman Aman Paksa and his clan who lives a traditional life, surviving without money, electricity or modern tools. Amundsen is spellbound by their lifestyle and decides to document their harmonic way of life.

Amundsen follows Aman Paksa for nearly 15 years on his turbulent path towards modernity.
