In the Shadow of the Condor




In the Shadow of the Condor documents a January 2002 expedition into the spectacular and pristine Corcovado wilderness in Southern Chile. The expedition traveled up a "heart of darkness" river, bushwhacked through a vertical jungle, and then emerged out into a magnificent landscape of glaciated granite walls. Filmmaker Michael Brown and Chilean conservationist Pablo Sandor climbed upward to find a jewel of a lake tucked between the highest peaks.

Sandor and his Ayacara Foundation are working to protect the Corcovado region from development and the United Nations has just selected Ayacara to receive a prestigious conservation award. Ayacara leaders give important credit for the award to Brown's film, which dramatized for U.N. and the Chilean Government’s decision makers first-hand why the region should be included in a national park. In the Shadow of the Condor was produced by Outside Television, in association with Outdoor Life Network.
