Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Thia Brazilian-West German coproduction was released in the US by United Artists. Originally titled Mundo Extrano, the film stars Alexander Carlos as an intrepid explorer. In the company of Angelica Hauff, Carlos ventures into headhunter territory in South America, in search of his long-lost father. Most of the film consists of documentary footage, which seems a lot slicker than the "plot" scenes. An unexpected unhappy ending caps this hybrid production.
