The Seed

1 A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES Easy.
Easy, stay calm.
I got in.
I got in.
And saw the light.
- And the darkness! - You're going to be fine.
You're going to be fine! And the darkness! I could only see some spots of light in the darkness.
I thought it was a nightmare but it was the gift of the indigenous poison.
Everything is true.
Everything we have read.
Everything they told us.
In the jungle lies the consciousness of humankind.
And inside that consciousness is the all.
Darkness is the heart of the jungle, the door to an infinite power, the perfect weapon.
A supreme race created from darkness.
Able to manipulate human consciousness.
Are you sure you can go back? Yes.
I'm ready.
My body already changed.
I just need to find the eternals, they are the key.
The daughter of the jungle will open your eyes to what is sacred.
When I found her, I felt that the Garden of Eden lived within her.
That her veins were roots and she was the guardian of something sacred.
That we had to learn and protect her from men.
Our superiors didn't recognize it that way.
They just saw another wild child to tame.
But our lives would change forever.
I, being just a girl, recognized that God's wisdom lived inside that woman born in Eden.
I promised to take care of her.
But now the jungle is claiming her.
Hi.
Do you have curarina? It's a plant that produces small red fruits.
It's used to relieve colic pains, animal bites - No? - No, I'm sorry.
We don't have it.
Thank you.
- Hi.
This is curarina, isn't it? - Yes.
Don't drink from that plant.
It'll harm your baby.
It causes premature births in pregnant women.
Sorry, I'm not pregnant.
Thank you.
Ushe.
Ushe.
Why did you tell that woman she was pregnant? I couldn't see anything.
Get some rest, Raquel.
I bleed like him, I suffer like him.
I bleed like him, I suffer like him.
I bleed like him, I suffer like him.
I bleed like him, I suffer like him.
I bleed like him, I bleed like him.
I suffer like him, I bleed like him.
I suffer like him.
He died to save us all.
- From what? - From sin.
He was tortured and crucified, to show us the true sense of mercy and forgiveness.
Thus, he opened the doors of heaven for us.
Death is a cult to men.
Life is a cult to women.
In the jungle, we celebrate the mother who gave life.
The jungle.
Women are the heirs to the gift of the jungle.
Of life.
I'll help you heal.
Lord, please have mercy, I tried to be strong as I suffered like you did.
What are you doing? Here in the house of God, you learn to stop being wild.
Understood? Ushe, forgive me.
I promise nobody will ever touch you again.
deliver us from our enemies.
In the name of the mother, the daughter and the jungle, amen.
Your blood flows within us and in the jungle.
We're one light, one strength.
I can hear you.
Fertile body, body of life, mother of all, embrace us.
Fertile body, body of life, mother of all, embrace us.
Deliver us, our lady, our goodness.
In the name of the mother, the daughter, the jungle, amen.
Praised be our goodness.
Praised be the jungle.
I never thought that fucker would be that heavy.
What do we do? I think I'll go back to my community.
I'll do whatever it takes so Grandpa Wilson will take me again.
You should do the same.
Go back to Bogotá.
Since I got here I've seen some very strange things.
I thought I was going crazy, but I wasn't.
Now I think everything makes sense.
What do you see? I see Ushe.
She talks to me.
She guided me to Yaguaní after what you did to me.
You must think I'm crazy.
No.
Grandpa Wilson says you must listen to the spirit of the dead when they speak.
Let's hope.
Look.
Raquel gave me this picture.
Those are my parents with Ushe.
I must find who took away Ushe's heart.
And whoever killed the missionary women, because I'm sure it has something to do with my mom's death.
How did you know I was pregnant? I can feel your baby, his heart.
His heartbeat reflects in your eyes.
I had no idea, until you told me.
The doctor confirmed it afterwards.
Don't be afraid.
Your baby needs your courage to grow.
Nice to meet you, I'm Aura.
Ushe.
I'm writing a book about Amazonian plants.
Do you want to come to my house? I'll show you.
We could have a drink.
Thanks, Ushe.
Lucho, thank you for bringing her.
Thank you.
Welcome! I'm so glad the nuns let you come.
- Meet my husband.
- Nice to meet you.
Joaquín Poveda.
Come on in.
After all this time, I've realized that not only plants Look at everything I've collected.
or their roots, even animals contain elements that can cure disease.
I'm sure, Ushe, all the answers in the world are here in the Amazon.
Not just to live better.
Also to save lives.
That's why I'm writing that book.
To discover and share the miracles of the jungle.
The jungle is the consciousness of the heart.
She does not perform miracles.
Each root that comes out of the earth is a vein which nurtures the others.
And connects the mother to everything including us.
This is Joaquín's office.
I met a group of Indians with body paint like yours.
I want to show you something.
Mananuc.
They left the jungle about four years ago.
I was part of the group who helped them find a place to settle.
No one knows they exist.
It's been a long time since I left them.
I am surprised that they have interacted with whites.
Why did you leave them? The rubber workers came and took us to their plantations.
We were freed.
But that happened more than 60 years ago.
Where were you? We were looking for you all day.
The missionaries talk about you.
You never eat.
You never get your period.
You're always awake.
You know plants like nobody else does.
They think you're a witch.
But I think you're a saint.
I don't think this is the place for someone like me.
No, Ushe? Why? Just one.
One.
Joaco! Ushe, you don't eat, you don't sleep.
I suppose you dance, right? - Of course she does.
- Of course you do, come on.
Let's dance.
Let's all dance.
He's gone.
He can't be too far.
I'll look for him in town.
You look for him in Yurumí.
Let's meet on the pier in the afternoon.
Forgive me.
Chiric Añégü.
I've looked for it for years.
Now I'll be able to finish the book.
Wait.
You must ask her for permission.
Mother Jungle, I pick the flower of the eternal souls, to share their knowledge.
Her ripple will be listened and respected.
We'll return the ground and water and that will grow up as this one.
Have you always been like this? And how do you say "tree"? How? And how do you say "mother"? What is it? Joaquin, talk to her.
Both of them are at risk.
We will do what we can.
But given what happened in your other pregnancies, you’ll have to make a decision soon, all right? Very well.
Maybe there is something that could save the baby.
But you'd have to make a big sacrifice.
It's the same that made me what I am.
What some call eternity.
Save her.
Please.
You have to go right now.
It's upstairs.
Check that room.
Hey, Márquez.
Ivan is missing.
He’s been gone for 24 hours.
I think someone took him down.
The neighbors heard a gunshot here, at Agent Poveda's hotel.
What is it that you want? Why so startled, Reynaldo? Going on a trip or something? I'm doing my laundry.
What happened with Agent Poveda? Do you know where she is? How the fuck should I know? You're really useless.
They send you to silence that bitch, and you didn’t have the balls.
Do you need anything else? What about Deputy Commissioner Ivan? Have you seen him? Maybe he’s with Marquez.
Or with some hookers, as usual.
If I were you, I wouldn't sleep, agent.
I was missing you already.
Is everything all right? Are you sure? - I need your help with something.
- Sure.
I can't explain right now, but my dad is in a hospital in Yurumí.
Could you keep an eye on him? Yes.
His name is Joaquín Poveda.
Okay, and where are you going? Far, for now.
Thank you.
Anything? What should we do? Let's wait.
Take her away from here.
Raquel will surely come looking for her.
Raquel? Ushe was always in the church.
Thank you.
Chiric Añégü.
It's the flower that carries the soul of dead people.
Being of light and darkness.
Being of light and darkness.
You, as the link between the body and the soul, are born.
The power of consciousness, the life and death of the jungle.
