When a mass hysteria of unknown origin causes parents in a quiet suburban town to turn violently on their own children, Carly Ryan (Anne Winters) and brother Josh (Zackary Arthur) have to fight to survive a vicious onslaught from the very people who brought them into this world (Nicolas Cage and Selma Blair). From the director of Crank, and featuring one hell of a cast, including Nicolas Cage (Face Off, Con Air), Selma Blair (Hellboy, Cruel Intentions) and Lance Henriksen (The Terminator, Aliens), Mom and Dad is one of the great jet-black comedies about suburbia (Variety) that sees Cage play one of the most viciously berserk characters of his career!
Before he can become a warrior a man has to leave everything behind and go into the jungle guided only by his dreams. In that journey he has to discover completely alone, who he really is. Some get lost and never come back Karamakate, a warrior shaman and last of his tribe, transcends the worlds of men and seeks truth through their dreams. He alone knows how to find the mysterious and psychedelic Yakruna plant; for some it has life-saving properties, for others it is a commodity waiting to be exploited. Two scientists, in two different times with very different agendas enlist Karamakate on their individual quests in an epic adventure into the heart of the Colombian Amazon to find this mythical plant. This Oscar nominated film is seen through Karamakate's eyes and bears witness to the effects ofcolonialism, religion and the exploitation of rubber, that affect indigenous traditions and the environment to which they are inextricably linked.
