A Grateful Tribute to Amazonian Wisdom in "Yuriana's Garden"

  • Summary

  • Luis, born in Galicia, Spain, has been fascinated by dreams, the occult, spirits, and magic since childhood. This lifelong curiosity drew him to science fiction, comics, and ultimately, filmmaking. After beginning his career with short horror and sci-fi films, he soon grew weary of commercial work and moved to London to expand his career. There, he joined London Real and rose to the role of creative director, where he eventually met one of his idols, Dennis McKenna. Together, they created ReConnect, a documentary that introduced Luis to the world of ayahuasca, sparking a profound shift in his life.

    Driven by the transformative experience, Luis journeyed to the Amazon to immerse himself in shamanic practices, arriving just as COVID lockdowns began. This unplanned, extended stay led to Psychedelic Pandemic, an awardwinning documentary chronicling his time in the jungle. He spent three years in the rainforest, undertaking "dietas," facilitating ayahuasca retreats, and co-creating Biognosis with the McKenna Academy. His experiences are shared on his YouTube channel Dissolution and distilled in his latest project, El jardín de Yuriana.
