 They set up camp at the Descalvados Ranch in Cuiabá and were ostensibly searching for the lost explorer Colonel Percival Harrison Fawcett, who was looking for the legendary Lost City of Z (some speculate this to either be synonymous or different to the legendary city of Eldorado).They made several flights with a seaplane, once running out of fuel on the Paraguay River and receiving help from the Bororo people.The crew's cameraman filmed a ceremonial dance, a first contact scenario with Boboré villagers, and Bororo men experiencing sympathetic labor pains.
