The Saul Zaentz Company Presents / A Hector Babenco Film
Released December 1991
The setting of At Play in the Fields of the Lord is the Amazon rain forest. The principal characters are two American soldiers of fortune, four fundamentalist missionaries, and an isolated tribe, the Niaruna, who have never been contacted by outsiders. The story develops as the main characters clash in a fanatical conflict over the fate of the Niaruna and how no one can emerge unchanged by their Amazon experience. At Play in the Fields of the Lord was filmed entirely on location in Amazonia.
