Imagine a remote city, in the middle of the Amazon jungle, 400 kilometers down river from Manaus and accessible only by boat or airplane. Once a year, this town becomes the focal point of an incredible regional celebration, where visitors from throughout the Amazon and world come to participate in a remarkable spectacle that defies description with dancing, street celebrations and incredible pageantry in an Amazonian setting, with thousands of bodies swaying to the pulsating rhythms of “Boi Bumba”, the exotic, compelling percussion beat of the jungle. Part samba, part “jungle hip-hop”.
