Wenn die Schamanen aufhören zu tanzen und das Leben im Regenwald aus dem Gleichgewicht gerät, wird der Himmel einstürzen und alles unter sich begraben. Diese Geschichte wird im brasilianischen Amazonasgebiet von jeder Generation der Yanomami weitergegeben. Aber die Gier nach Gold verschmutzt die Flüsse und bedroht die Yanomami. Ihre Schamanen sterben, während sich die Erde erwärmt. Davi Kopenawa, Schamane und Sprecher der Yanomami, kämpft seit mehr als 40 Jahren gegen diese Bedrohungen. Als der brasilianische Präsident Bolsonaro ankündigt, dass sich Industrien im Amazonasgebiet – auf dem Territorium der Yanomami – ansiedeln können, bricht Davi zu einer Reise um die Welt auf, um sein Volk gegen die endlose Kolonisierung zu verteidigen. Kann er die Weißen davon überzeugen, dass der Einsturz des Himmels nicht nur die Yanomami vernichten wird?
