Born in the Jungle
During the school summer break, nine-year-old Elizabeth joins her family in the rainforest where they live with the Pemón tribe. When, after an accident, Mum needs to fly Dad to a hospital, Elizabeth must look after her three-year-old brother Leo. However, instead of minding her brother, she gets lost in her sketchbook. When Elisabeth finally looks up, she discovers that Leo has disappeared, and all signs suggest he wandered into the jungle.
